The Process

Infant Adoption

Once you are ready to start your domestic adoption journey, request Gladney’s free information packet. After completing the brief pre-application form included in the adoption packet, the process will include:

  • Returning the pre-application form and family photo back to Gladney
  • Attending a group orientation
  • After the orientation, you will complete your adoption paperwork:
    • Gladney Application
    • Adoption Home Study

While each adoption’s time frame differs, every story ends with a “happily ever after” when you meet your child for the first time.

To learn more about adopting from Gladney’s Domestic Infant Adoption Program, please take the first step by attending our free Domestic Infant Webinar.

Your first step in exploring domestic infant adoption is to watch our Domestic Infant Webinar. It’s designed to help you see if Gladney’s Domestic Infant Program is a good fit for you and your family.
