Adoption is one of the bravest decisions you could ever make. It’s a turning point in your life that comes from a place of love. You’re putting your baby’s needs before yours to give them the lifestyle they deserve.

Through adoption, you can take control of your life to create a brighter future for yourself and your baby.

You can always connect with an adoption agency to learn more and get free adoption information now.

1. Can I Get Paid to Give My Baby up for Adoption?

No, you cannot get paid for adoption, as selling your baby is illegal. There are no adoption agencies that will pay you for your consent to adoption. But, you could receive financial assistance for adoption-related expenses, in addition to getting free services.

2. Do You Get Paid for Adoption-Related Costs?

Yes, you can get paid for adoption to cover adoption- and pregnancy-related expenses throughout your pregnancy. The amount of financial assistance you’re eligible for varies depending on your state of residence, but, generally, you can receive support with costs such as:

• Rent
• Maternity clothing
• Medical bills
• Transportation to doctors’ appointments
• Groceries
• Legal fees
• And more

Your birth parent specialist will get a better understanding of your situation to ensure you receive the maximum amount of support allowable.

We’re always here to help, and, if you have any questions, you can contact us at any time to learn more about receiving financial support throughout your adoption journey.

3. Can Women Get Paid to Give a Baby up for Adoption Legally?

Legally, a woman is not allowed to get paid for adoption. If someone asks you to get paid to give your baby up for adoption, then it can be considered trafficking and will have serious legal consequences.

There’s a lot of confusion because you can receive financial assistance when you pursue adoption – but only to cover pregnancy- and adoption-related expenses. Every state has different laws about how much financial assistance you can receive, so it’s important to work with a reputable adoption agency.

According to American Adoptions, a licensed national adoption agency, working with the right agency ensures your adoption is completed legally and ethically.

4. Which Adoption Agencies Can Help Me Get Paid for Adoption?

There are many adoption professionals out there that can help you get paid for adoption. But, national adoption agencies are some of the best agencies to work with. These agencies will ensure you receive the financial assistance needed for a safe and supported adoption experience.

Not only are national adoption agencies more reputable than other professionals, but they also offer more free services and support such as:

• Help finding and choosing a family for your child
• Unlimited access to profiles of pre-screened waiting families
• Medical care for you and the baby
• Legal representation throughout the process, separate from the adoptive family’s representation
• 24/7 counseling and emotional support before, during and after the adoption

Finding the right professional is the key to having as smooth and stress-free of an experience as possible. Below are a few national adoption agencies you can contact that are ready to help you “get paid” for adoption:

• American Adoptions
