Adopting a child is an act of love
 

Commonwealth Catholic Charities offers an array of options for parents considering adoptions. The choice is yours.

Quick Links

Agency
Agency-assisted adoptions have been a safe and secure means of adopting children for decades. It can vary from traditional closed adoptions to the more modern openness in adoption.

International
International adoption has grown in recent years in response to the plight of orphaned children around the world. It also provides an alternative to the longer waiting period for domestic adoption. CCC works in cooperation with a number of US intermediary agencies for the placement of children from Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and Latin America.

Parental Placement
Parental Placement Adoption is growing across the country as a response to birth parents and couples wanting more control over the adoption process. This is a fully open adoption with identifiable information exchanged.
