Abrazo’s greatest need at present is still for childless couples who are racially-open, and for Texans. If you don’t fall into these categories, you ARE still welcome to submit the AP inquiry form that can be downloaded from our website (and we hope you do!) We may not be able to admit or match or place you as quickly, but we want you to know our program needs upfront, so that you can begin the process with realistic expectations.

Welcome to the World all the new girls & baby girl to their Forever Families!!

She didn't choose adoption, but here's a current story about what experts call "cryptic pregnancy"... click here.

Abrazo had no waiting families open to sibling groups this month, so the agency reached out to others and was grateful when a former AbrazoMom help led introduce us to a homestudy-ready Texas couple who shared the birthmom’s desire for open adoption. After weeks of getting to know each other and preplacement visits, the birthfamily and adoptive family made the decision to become forever family, giving two sisters the best of both worlds… blessings, all!

Here's the latest update--- Abrazo has been VERY conservative in its admissions practices throughout the Covid pandemic, and as a result, we are in urgent need of * childless couples with racially-open placement preferences, * Hispanic and/or African-American adoptive couples, * parents seeking to adopt noninfants, and/or * applicants living in Texas who are ready for open adoption.

They didn't get to return for another orientation weekend, due to the ongoing Covid pandemic, and they waited for more than a year to get back into Abrazo's program, since they already had a child... but the Good Lord always gets His timing right, and sure enough, when these againers were readmitted, they were just in time. An expectant mom due within a month found herself in need of just the right family for her baby girl, and she found them within the ranks of Abrazo's Crown Club. Their plans to meet prior to the due date were foiled by a delivery that happened unexpectedly, but they're all

Welcome to Abrazo...& Your Forever Family..... Abel, Omar, Eli, Carson, Daisy, Olivia, Samuel, Everly & Abel.... (trying to catch up with all the recent placement)

A young single mother of two already, she knew her limits, so when she found herself divorced and unexpectedly pregnant, she wanted a better life for the baby through open adoption. She chose the best parents she could for him, and this pandemic-era Crown Club couple truly welcomed her and all her children into their lives with open arms. We are overjoyed for all of them, and especially for the newborn son they now share.

The adoptive parents had endured a year-and-a-half long wait (and failed adoption plan) at another local adoption agency before coming to Abrazo. But a loving birthmother helped make their miracle possible, and this weekend, thanks to her (and to Abrazo’s staff, who gladly worked overtime) these pandemic-era Crown Club members became the proud parents of their first child, a beautiful male newborn. Blessings, all!
