At Abrazo, we're all about family, so make yourself at home! Abrazo is a private, nonprofit child-placement agency licensed by the State of Texas since 1994. Our home office is located in San Antonio, but we work with clients from all across the United States. Abrazo's community is composed of loving parents by birth and adoption, and amazing children who are growing up with knowledge of and access to all the people who love them most-- all because of open adoption.
Whatever has drawn you here, whatever you're seeking: we're glad you've found us. We know Abrazo can't be all things to all people, so if you don't find what you're looking for here, we hope we're a safe harbor on your way to finding solutions that work for you.
And for those who are seeking the warm embrace of an ethical adoption resource that has its heart in the right place, look no further! Because there's no place like home, and you're already here.
