Adoption Homestudy Services Plus

JFS is now offering a range of adoption services to the community. The Adoption Homestudy Services Plus program fully reflects the JFS mission as we work to promote permanent, safe, and loving families for children, while supporting couples and individuals who are seeking to adopt. 

For prospective families residing in Delaware, Adoption Homestudy Services Plus can provide:

  • Homestudies for individuals and couples
  • Post-placement services for adoptive families

For families residing in Delaware, Pennsylvania and Maryland, Adoption Homestudy Services Plus offers:

  • Pre-adoption consultations
  • Post-adoption counseling to adoptive parents, birth family members, and adopted persons
  • Support Groups
  • Referrals to adoption support organizations and other community services

The consultation and counseling services are available on a sliding-fee scale, and may be eligible for payment through private insurance. Our licensed professional staff has extensive experience working with adoptive families and birth families in both international and domestic adoptions. 

JFS maintains a  Partner Agreement with Children’s Home Society & Family Services (CHSFS) to provide international adoptive placements through CHSFS.  CHSFS currently has active programs in Russia, Ukraine, Ethiopia, and China in addition to seven other countries. For more information about the available CHSFS programs, please visit:                  http://www.childrenshomeadopt.org/International_Adoption.html.
