Hollywood Adoption Home Study Providers

Adoptive families have to meet different requirements depending on the type of adoption they choose. But, there’s one thing that all families have to do: complete an adoption home study.

An adoption home study is essentially an overview of an adoptive family’s lifestyle, home, and readiness to adopt. During this step, a licensed social worker will visit your home to conduct an assessment and in-home interviews.

It can seem stressful, but as a licensed Florida home study agency, American Adoptions of Florida will make it as easy as possible. Even if you’re not working with our agency for placement, we will be happy to complete your domestic and international adoption home studies, too.

Foster Care Adoption Agencies in Hollywood, FL

Some hopeful parents decide that they want to adopt an older child, a child with special needs, or a sibling group. In that case, foster care adoption is the right path for them.

Foster care adoption can be a complicated process, but it can be a beautiful way to provide a home to the thousands of children in Florida state custody who need one. American Adoptions does not complete foster care adoptions, but there are several foster care adoption agencies in Hollywood you can reach out to:

International Adoption Agencies in Hollywood, FL

While there are many options for a domestic adoption, many adoptive parents still decide that an international adoption is the right choice for them. Options for viable intercountry adoptions have decreased over the last few years, but you may still be able to pursue this family-building option.

If you are interested, we encourage you to work with a Hague-approved adoption agency in Hollywood, such as:

Adoption Attorneys in Hollywood, FL

No matter what kind of Hollywood adoption you pursue, there’s one professional you can’t do without an adoption attorney.

Hollywood adoption laws can be confusing. Without trained legal guidance, you could quickly put your own adoption journey in jeopardy. Fortunately, American Adoptions of Florida is always happy to provide our prospective birth parents and adoptive parents references to trusted lawyers we frequently work with.

Want to look for Hollywood adoption attorneys on your own? You could start with these local options:

Hollywood Hospitals for Prenatal and Maternity Care and Delivery

If you’re facing an unplanned pregnancy and think adoption in Hollywood might be right for you, we’ll be there to help you every step of the way — from providing 24/7 education and counseling to presenting profiles of waiting adoptive families to counseling birth parents after placement.

Part of that journey involves creating a hospital plan, where you’ll detail exactly how you want your childbirth experience to go. We’ll help you create a plan for your chosen hospital, and we’ll help your medical professionals prepare, too. Don’t have a hospital in mind? There are a few options in and near Hollywood you might consider:

Please remember: Your medical costs will always be covered by your adoption agency and the adoptive parents you choose for your baby.

Hollywood Courts for Adoption Finalization

When you’re an adoptive parent, your journey isn’t officially over when your baby is placed in your arms. You’ll need to complete a few more legal steps before your child is officially (and legally) a member of the family. These include post-placement visits and adoption finalization.

Post-placement visits will typically be completed by your home study provider, and that information will be presented to a judge during your adoption finalization hearing. Your family will be present during this hearing and, after asking a few questions, the judge will approve your adoption and declare an official final decree of adoption.

Your Hollywood adoption finalization will typically take place at the Broward County Court.
