ABC Adoption Agency, Inc.
San Antonio Adoption Agency and Texas Adoption
We understand the emotional and physical torment a birth mother experiences when she is pregnant and does not want to be. One of the most challenging decisions you will ever make will be deciding whether you should keep your baby, have an abortion, or go through the process of adoption. We also understand your decision may affect you or your baby and other children you have at home.
We hope to answer any questions you may have as regards birth father involvement (yes, you can move forward without father involvement, although we welcome any questions or concerns a birth father may have), open or closed adoptions, selecting a family (or not), etc. Our desire and goal is that you will be at peace with whatever your decision may be. Sacrificing your baby to receive the best care, education, and opportunities is the most unselfish act.
We will listen to and honor your request regarding receiving photos of the baby throughout the years and will make arrangements for you to meet the adoptive family if you choose. These are personal decisions that only you can make; there are no right or wrong choices.
Our agency staff will assist you, discuss your alternatives, and provide counseling and support as you decide what is best for you.
We are a San Antonio-based adoption agency that provides help to birth mothers and prospective adopting parents with the whole adoption process from A to Z.

Requirements to become a foster parent
Adults who are new to the fostering process sometimes feel overwhelmed and wonder if they will have support on their journey. Your child-placing agency is the first resource. Social services caseworkers provide aspiring foster parents with various types of support and connections. These include free educational training programs, helplines, and support groups.
It is important that foster parents build their individual support network, too. Connecting with other foster families with more experience is an excellent place to begin. Texas groups offer foster parent meetups; you can search online for the closest one.
The Texas Foster Family Association provides state training, a regional directory of support services, a summer training conference, and more. Membership benefits include getting access to foster care professionals and learning more about ways to become better caregivers. Children of TFFA members can also get assistance through the Scholarship Fund.
Austin Angels is another support organization that strives to assist foster parents and Texas foster children. They offer care packages and gifts for foster children and their caregivers, mentorship options, and education, among other resources. Foster children and teens can learn valuable skills that help prepare them for independent living, as well.

I am so thankful for the service and the support that this agency has done for me. Very friendly environment very friendly staff. Helped me get through this tough time. Finally get to see my daughter and be part of her life. It has been a long journey for me a lot of heartaches and wonder if I will ever see her again but everyone made it easier and stress free to be able to contact her and her adoptive parents. I thank God and Thank you so much ABC for everything you have done for me. Gave me back a peace of mind, and happiness back into my life.
