"We are so happy to have gone through CCC for our placement and adoption! Aside from all the wonderful attributes CCC gives to the community, our case worker was fantastic! Every time we met with her we left feeling a lot better about the process."

- Belle & Eric 

What are the steps to an adoption? 

1

Attend an adoption orientation

Learn about adoption, about CCC, ask questions and get answers. 

3

Complete required paperwork

State law requires background checks, medical screenings, financial information, etc.

5

Ready for placement opportunities

With the previous steps completed, you are now ready to receive a child into your family.

7

Post-placement

After your child is placed with you, a caseworker will continue to visit you and provide support. 

2

Complete a home study

State law requires a home study where you are assessed as a prospective adoptive parent.

4

Prepare adoptive family profile

Your profile tells birth moms considering placing their child for adoption about you.

6

Complete the adoption process

The adoption process can now proceed with a child placement.

8

Legal finalization

Legal paperwork is filed to finalize the adoption.
