The hot new commodity in reproductive options seems to be Texas surrogates. Texas hospitals nowadays report seeing far more than Texas surrogates than birthmoms choosing adoption. Through South Texas, tacky billboards picturing pregnant women shamelessly tout "be a...
Interesting: "child adoption" is a common search term, although it's most "newborn adoption" that most hopeful adopters are seeking these days. (Why is that?) Abrazo has been doing both (child adoption and baby adoptions) since 1994. Since then, some things have...
When it comes to open adoption, whether someone is making a placement plan or thinking of re-establishing lost contact, four words apply: better late than never! Adoption has typically been about timing (bad timing, that is.) Unplanned pregnancy usually is a crisis...

Just after a controversial speech in Washington, D.C., Abrazo is already fielding questions about how threats to end birthright citizenship may impact adoption. So let's unpack this together, shall we? What is birthright citizenship, anyway? The United States...
When it comes to open adoption do's & don'ts, there's the obvious and the not-so-obvious. Put the adopted child's needs first, always. Do what you say you will. Call or text at reasonable hours. Don't make surprise visits. Do keep each other informed of address...
