Grow your family through international and domestic infant adoption with the guidance of Jewish Family Service’s Adoption Connection program. Our knowledgeable team of adoption social workers has over 100 combined years of experience to give you the support and education you need at every stage...from orientation to homestudies to finalization to post-adoptive services.

Adoption Connection is welcoming to all regardless of number of children, religion, race, sexual orientation, marital status, or age. Our expertise also covers identified, relative, and step-parent adoption services.

And if you are considering international adoption, Adoption Connection can be your local link. You can trust our experience and expert knowledge to provide the necessary Ohio-required homestudy and education that you need to complete your international adoption.

Adoption Connection is excited to share with you a new philosophy toward building your family through adoption. This new approach is different than what we have done before. In fact, it is different than any other agency in Ohio is doing. And it is an approach that should result in your holding your infant in your arms sooner than you expected.

No longer will you sign up with an adoption agency, sit back and wait for that long-anticipated phone call. Now you will be empowered to proactively connect with a woman considering adoption.

And of course our team of “Experts in Adoption TM” will be by your side along your adoption journey. In addition to continuing our community wide agency outreach, we will always be available to provide as much support as you need.

Yes, although we have been building families through adoption since 1943, we continue to evolve to best serve you. Today we hope you will reconsider your traditional view of adoption.

You now have more control over the adoption process

Have you heard about long waiting lists? Well, instead of asking you to WAIT with us; we are inviting you to WORK with us. The more work you do as a prospective adoptive parent to identify you own adoption, the more control you have over your own situation. And, hopefully, the shorter your time until placement.

Philosophically, Adoption Connection wants to be your partner in adoption---we want to empower you, inspire you, support you, guide you. And, of course, we will be there every step of the way with you. But we want to help you to be in control of your situation.

You may feel overwhelmed with the decisions you need to make when facing an unplanned pregnancy. Our social workers at Adoption Connection will provide you with the information and counseling you need to make an educated decision.

We promise that will be treated with respect and have ongoing staff support, regardless of the decision you make.

Adoption Connection is a dba of Jewish Family Service.
