In addition to our regular follow-up services during the adoption process, we offer assistance, through post-adoption services, to adopted individuals as well as adoptive families. From searching and reuniting adoptive children with their birth families to making community referrals to assist adoptive families with concerns, we offer a range of supportive services.

Search and Reunion Services
Search and reunion services offer an adopted individual, 18 years of age or older, a complete birth-family picture. We may be able to provide an adopted adult who was placed through our services with valuable family information as well as reunite him or her with birth parents. Using various informational tools, we conduct an extensive search to help the adopted individual achieve his or her goal.

Generalized Assistance and Referrals
Diakon Adoption & Foster Care also offers generalized assistance to adoptive families. For example, if you have a tax-credit question pertaining to adoption, or need advice regarding a behavioral problem, our staff members can often personally assist you. In the event that we cannot help, we will refer you to a professional who will best be able to assist you.

We support our adoptive families every step of the way—even after the adoption is complete!
