Adoption is defined as a process whereby a person assumes the parenting for another and, in so doing, permanently transfers all rights and responsibilities from the original parent or parents. It is a legal act in the United State of America, with clearly laid down rules and regulations. This process is facilitated by adoption services and agencies in Morrow, whereby both the aspect of matching a child with a family, as well as the paperwork is handled. Adoptions can be of various types: closed, semi-open, or open. There are both public and private adoption agencies and services, which are licensed by the state in which they operate. They serve to provide information about adoption, its legal ramifications, and the whole process. The agencies help match birth parents with waiting families. These services are provided for a stipulated fee. These agencies also need the support of Social Services. They work to streamline the process, arrange meeting with the birth parent, choose gender and/or race of the adopted child, as well as legal and emotional support. While there are also independent facilitators for adoption, but their legal status is questionable. Adoption agencies and services in Morrow help complete the process, working with both birth parents and the families waiting to adopt.
