Find a Family - Waiting to Adopt

Gia and Joe

Adoption has always been in our plan; we knew that having a child ourselves was going to be challenging, and our treatment options were limited. We're a young couple (33 and 35) who have known each other for 11 years. We share similar values and our personalities fit together perfectly. We promise to give your child a safe and stable life and our unconditional love. We can't wait to meet you.

Stefanie and Nick and Alex

We always knew we wanted children, but after some time realized that it wasn’t going to happen the usual way. We chose a more hopeful path to becoming parents, and adopted our son Alex 4 years ago. We have so much love to give and can’t wait to share our lives with another child. We have faith that God will help you find the perfect family for your baby. Even if it is not us, we wish you love and above all, peace. .

Anna and Jared (and Dylan)

We're each other’s best friend and we make an excellent team. Adopting our son Dylan was the best thing that's ever happened to us. The three of us can't wait to bring a new baby into our family. We're lucky to have an open relationship with our son's birth mother, including regular updates and visits. If you'd like to get to know us or have questions, please contact us. We'd love to get to know you.

Gretchen and Mark

We both love children and can't wait to be parents. We have known for a few years that Gretchen would not be able to carry a pregnancy, so we had always planned to build our family through adoption. If you choose us, we promise that your courage, strength, and sacrifice will never be forgotten. Our families have taught us to be there for each other. We want to be there for you, too!

Angie and Kenny

We have known each other for most of our lives, but didn't start dating until 2009. We have been happily married for over three years now. Before we even knew that we couldn't have children ourselves, we talked about our wish to adopt a child. Adoption is very important to us and we hope to give you a view of what your child's life would be like with our family.

Susaan and Joe

We are a happy, playful, adventurous, and artistic couple with a wonderful support network of family and friends. We are both excited to become parents, and provide a loving home in which to raise a child. We understand this may be a difficult time for you, and feel blessed you are considering us to parent the child you are going to bring into this world.

Mandy and Josh

We're a young (32 and 35) fun-loving couple about to celebrate our seventh wedding anniversary. We have been a small family of three for five years now and would be so honored to be entrusted with another little life to love. While our immediate family is small, our extended family is large. We have dozens of aunts, uncles, and cousins eager to welcome your baby into the fold.

Mike and Scott

We are deeply honored that you are considering our family as a part of your adoption journey. We have been together for over seven years and married for over two. We both grew up in homes surrounded by love and filled with warmth. We believe that adoption is a very brave, loving and an absolutely selfless act. Please know that if you choose our family, your child will feel a lifetime of endless love, support, and encouragement.

Sara and Ryan

We have a very loving relationship and we share a common core of values. A child that joins our family will grow up in a home filled with love, laughter, and encouragement. We appreciate how difficult making this decision is for you. We also recognize the thought and courage it takes to choose the right family for your child. We sincerely hope that our home is the one you will choose.

Patrick and Mike

We can’t wait to fulfill our dream of having a child. We've been together for 10 years and married for 5. We hold strong values of love, compassion, education, and social responsibility. Our work provides a sense of meaning and giving back. We cherish our family and would do anything for them. Although open adoption is important to us, that decision is entirely up to you. Know we will always speak of you with respect, gratitude and kindness.

Megan and Mathew

We know that it's a tough circumstance that brings you to consider adoption, and we respect you for having the courage to consider this option. We are a young couple with two adopted kids, Michael, 8 and Lill, 5. We still feel that our family is incomplete and would love to adopt your baby. Our children are very excited to have a baby brother or sister. Thank you for considering our family. Our hearts and prayers go out to you.

Jami and Mike

Our wonderful family and friends support us through all of life's challenges and triumphs. We're in our mid-30s and we have a great relationship built on respect and common interests. Our journey together is an adventure, and we've built memories and experiences to last a lifetime. We hope to offer a child that same feeling, together as one family. We have a deep respect for you, we admire your bravery and hope get to know you.

Becca and Steve (and Sophia)

We cannot begin to imagine how you feel as you consider adoption for your baby. What we can do is assure you that you are not alone. We would be honored to help you through this journey. We have been happily married for 16 years. In 2013, we were blessed with our beautiful daughter, Sophie, through an open adoption. We are looking to complete our little family and hope you might consider placing your precious child with us.

Mariah

Ever since I can remember, I've always wanted to be a mom. I grew up with three sisters and incredibly loving and supportive parents who instilled in us the importance of family. While my life journey has not included marriage up to this point, I have so much love to share with a child and have been blessed with resources to support a family. My dream is to build my family through adoption.

Laura and Billy

We’re young (mid-30’s), active and we've been together for eight years and married for four. Billy works closeby as a finance director, and Laura works at the local library. Both of us are college graduates. We like to exercise, make dinners together, hang out with our families and travel. If you're thinking of an open adoption, we are open to visits, phone calls, pictures or letters. We wish you the best and hope you find the right family for your child.

Molly and Chris

Adoption is a brave and loving choice, but we are certain that it’s very difficult decision. Please know your child will grow up happy and loved in our home. We are looking forward to getting to know you and we hope getting to know us brings you comfort and the absolute certainty that your child will be safe, happy, educated, and loved by the two of us, and the rest of our family.

Beth and Rob (and Henry)

Our story began a long time ago, in a galaxy (or rather a college town) far, far away. We met while attending college and fell in love. After graduation, we moved back to Chicago and married. For years we were a twosome. We were busy -- buying a house, starting our careers, rescuing some adorable dogs – knowing that our long-term dreams meant kids! Our dreams came true in 2016 when we were chosen to parent our sweet little boy.

Olivia and David and Charlotte

We will raise your child with the knowledge that adoption is a loving choice, and you will be honored as the special woman who helped grow our family. In 2016, our dream of becoming adoptive parents came true. We are excited to go down this path again and hope that you will want to take this journey with us. We are young couple (31 & 33) who both grew up in the country on the outskirts of small Indiana towns.

Kasey and Shon

We know that you want the best for your baby, and we would be honored to be part of your adoption journey. Kasey teaches college and Shon is Vice President of a small IT company. We have been blessed with the adoption of our son and would be thrilled if you chose our family to adopt your baby. We will make sure that your child understands that placing a baby for adoption is a selfless and loving decision.

Katie and Craig

We are a young couple in our early 30’s and have been married for five years. Katie works in a hospital and Craig works as an engineer. We enjoy going for walks and bike rides on the local trails. The greatest experience of our lives, is the adoption of our daughter Grace. We are now ready to grow our family again, which has led us to you.

Farrah and Aaron

We are a fun-loving couple (both 30 years old) who are very excited to adopt. We live in a rural community in Indiana. Farrah has a degree in special elementary education and Aaron is a fourth generation farmer. We cannot wait to begin this chapter of our lives and count the days until this next adventure makes baby snuggles a reality in our world. Thank you for your bravery! We truly admire your strength and will continue to pray for your safety and wellbeing.

Chris and Dan (plus Tim)

We're sure this is a difficult time for you as you consider what is best for your precious baby. No matter what you decide, we hope you have the love and support you deserve. We’re a down-to-earth affectionate, fun-loving couple living in a family-friendly neighborhood in northwest Indiana. Our son joined our family through an open adoption, and we'd be happy to have an open adoption with you, too.

Michael and Ketul

We are very excited about becoming parents and take the responsibility of raising your child with the utmost respect. Your child will grow up living in a great city and will also have the unique experiences of playing at Michael’s family farm in Wisconsin and visiting Ketul’s family in India! We are so excited to be embarking on this journey and greatly appreciate you considering us for this honor.

Beth and Justin

We always wanted children and went through 3 years of unsuccessful infertility treatments. God had different plans for us and we felt a peace and calmness deciding that we were meant to adopt. We were blessed with Eli in May of 2011 and Margaret in September of 2014. We can’t imagine life without them. We believe everything happens for a reason, and we hope our paths are crossing for a special reason.

Susan and Andy

We want to raise children that make this world a better place. We'll teach our children to be compassionate, kind and empathetic. We also want to instill in our children respect for differences and diversity. Above all, we want our children to know that they are loved, every day and unconditionally. You will always have a place in our family and in your child’s heart.

Cheryl and Andy

Although we cannot know all the factors that go into your decision, we know it comes from an unselfish love for your baby and a desire for him or her to have the best life possible. We believe that adoption is a beautiful choice and we would be honored to have you consider us as the adoptive parents. With us, your child would thrive in a safe and loving environment with two very devoted parents and an involved extended family.

Lindsay and Dan

We are excited to start a new adoption journey. We're a young couple (both 32) who knew early in our relationship that we'd build our family through adoption. We adopted our son, Isaac, in 2015 and our son Eli in 2017. It has been our greatest joy to become parents, and we have so much love to share with another child. We'll give your child our unconditional love and every opportunity to become all that he or she is meant to be.

Katie and Mitch

We hope this letter will give you a glimpse into our lives and what your child’s life would be like in our family. We're a young couple (31 and 33) and we're so grateful that you are taking the time to get to know us. We feel blessed to have become parents through the adoption of our son Hudson, and are excited to become a family of four. Our Christian faith is at the center of our lives and our church community is like a tight-knit extended family.

Laura and Adam

We are a young (mid-30’s), energetic, fun-loving couple excited to adopt our first child. Laura works part time as a neonatal intensive care nurse. Adam works in banking and has the flexibility to work from home. He plans to be an involved, hands-on dad. We both love running, and our sweet, friendly dog, Penny. Our home is a safe and happy place, and we will be loving, supportive parents.

Samantha (Sam) and Seth

We're a young active couple (both 30 years old) ready for another child. Sam is a "retired" teacher who is now a stay-at-home mom. She loves being home, sharing every moment of her children's lives. Seth is a registered nurse, working in the Emergency Room of our local hospital. We always knew that we wanted children, and that adoption would be a part of our story. Our extended family has already been deeply touched by adoption.

Kelly and Josh

We've been married for 11 years and had always hoped to grow our family. Our journey has led us to adoption and we couldn't be more excited to welcome your baby into our lives. We respect and admire your courage and promise to raise your child in a loving, supportive home. We want this child to appreciate their adoption story and maintain contact with you. We'll always speak of you with respect, gratitude and kindness.

Shannon and Steve

We're in our mid-30s and have been married for 10 years. We met as kids and quickly became great friends. Sometime later, we fell in love and haven’t looked back since. Our life is truly a beautiful one. We have a very strong, loving bond with each other and our families, and there’s so much more love in our hearts to share with a child. We would love to get to know you and hope that you will want to get to know us, too.

Imelda and Jared

We are a biracial couple in our mid 30’s. Imelda is Mexican American and fluent in Spanish and English. She has a Masters degree in counseling and works with community college students. Jared has a Master’s degree in Business and works as a business analyst. With us, your child will grow up in a bi-cultural, bilingual home, but will always know where they came from. He or she will learn about the world as they travel with us.

Lauren and Graham

We are a young couple (both 32) excited to become first-time parents. We appreciate the courage and love it takes to choose an adoptive family for your baby. We met when we were just kids, but we've grown into the perfect team of loving, devoted, and goofy best friends.

Carla and Drew

We are thankful to have this opportunity to share our lives with you. Our family will be truly blessed if you were to choose us as your child's adoptive parents.

Please know that we are praying for you, and we believe that God is working in all our lives.
