Caring Adoptions Mission:  identify and educate prospective parents

Thinking about adopting? Learn the basics with "Adoption 101"... then move on to our advanced parenting classes!

Caring Adoptions’ adoption orientations are presented free of charge to prospective Adoptive Parents.

The Adoption 101 orientation covers the adoption process, your options for domestic adoption and international adoption and the impact of adopting a child. Learn the basics of the state-required home study and required documentation and clearances. Plus learn the costs of adoption; it may be less costly than you think!   Advanced Parenting classes are also offered.

Attendance at these sessions is limited so that you have the opportunity to ask questions, hear questions from others attending that you possibly did not think of, and meet some of our staff.

The orientations are usually held the first Saturday each  month (unless otherwise noted below) from 10am to 12 noon in our offices located at 11601 Katy Freeway, Suite 113, Houston, TX.  Reservations are requested and may be made by calling us toll free at 1-866-603-7162, locally at 281-920-4300 or contacting us via eMail.
