Why is private adoption so pricey?

If you are new to exploring private adoption you may have whiplash at the cost and the varying cost across agencies.

Some common contributing factors to the cost of adoption are:

  • Expectant Parent Living Expenses

  • Legal Fees - filing fees, attorneys for the agency, expectant parent, and your own finalization attorney

  • Counseling Services

  • Parenting Services

  • Case Management

  • Mileage

  • Agency fees - covering things such as operating cost

  • Advertising cost to market your family

  • Etc.

It’s okay to ask about fees with the agency you select. Explore which agencies will provide the highest level of services to both you and the expectant parent and the most support.
