How Our San Antonio Adoption Agency Can Help
Every pregnancy and every adoption situation is different. Because of that, Adoption Alliance works with each expectant mother individually.
Together, we can create a plan based on your needs, wishes and circumstances.
Free and Confidential Adoption Support
Our adoption services for expectant mothers are free.
Our team can answer your questions and provide support throughout your pregnancy. If you choose adoption, we can continue helping you throughout the adoption process.
Choose the Adoptive Family
You can choose the adoptive parents for your baby.
Adoption Alliance provides profiles of approved waiting families for you to review. In many situations, you can also speak with or meet families before making your decision.
However, you do not have to choose a family by yourself. If you prefer, our team can help.
Financial and Living Expense Assistance
Pregnancy can create additional financial pressure.
Depending on your individual circumstances and Texas law, assistance may be available for reasonable pregnancy-related expenses.
For example, help may be available for:
- Housing or rent
- Utilities
- Groceries
- Clothing and personal necessities
- Cell phone service
- Pregnancy-related transportation
- Certain medical expenses
Contact Adoption Alliance to discuss your specific needs and what assistance may be available.
Medical and Prenatal Care Assistance
If you do not have health insurance or Medicaid, Adoption Alliance may be able to help with certain pregnancy-related medical expenses. We can also help you find prenatal care if you need a medical provider.
Transportation and Practical Support
Transportation can make appointments difficult during pregnancy.
Depending on your circumstances, assistance may be available for transportation to prenatal care, counseling and other important appointments.
This may include rideshare services, gasoline assistance or other transportation options.
Local Pregnancy Resources in San Antonio
Pregnant women in San Antonio may also qualify for local programs that provide nutrition, health services and family support.
The San Antonio Metropolitan Health District WIC program serves eligible pregnant and postpartum women, infants and young children. Services include nutrition education, food benefits, breastfeeding support and health-care referrals.
Metro Health also operates multiple WIC clinics throughout San Antonio (WIC Locator), making this a genuinely useful local resource rather than generic location-page filler.
The City of San Antonio also offers guidance on low-cost options and healthcare coverage through the City of San Antonio Maternal Health Resources, including Medicaid for Pregnant Women, CHIP Perinatal, and CentroMed.
You can also contact Adoption Alliance for help identifying resources such as Medicaid and other pregnancy-support programs.
What Happens If I Choose Adoption?
Step 1: Talk With an Adoption Professional
The first step can simply be a conversation.
Call Adoption Alliance 24/7. Tell us about your situation, ask questions and learn how adoption works.
You do not need to make a final decision before calling.
Step 2: Create Your Adoption Plan
If you want to continue exploring adoption, we can help you create a plan.
Your adoption plan can include your preferences for the adoptive family, contact after adoption, pregnancy support and your hospital experience.
Most importantly, the plan should reflect your wishes.
Step 3: Choose an Adoptive Family
Next, you can review profiles of families who have completed the adoption approval process.
You can choose the family you believe is right for your child. When appropriate, you may also speak with or meet prospective adoptive parents before placement.
Step 4: Prepare for the Hospital
As your due date approaches, our team can help you think through your hospital preferences.
For example, you can discuss how involved you want the adoptive family to be and what time you would like with your baby.
Every situation is different. Your hospital plan should reflect what is important to you.
Step 5: Complete the Adoption Process With Support
After your baby’s birth, the legal adoption process and your rights will be explained to you by the appropriate adoption and legal professionals.
Adoption Alliance will remain available to support you and help coordinate the process.
Can I Have an Open Adoption?
Yes.
Adoption Alliance works with open, semi-open and closed adoption plans.
In an open adoption, you and the adoptive family may stay in contact after placement. The type and amount of contact can vary.
Some families exchange photos and updates. Others may also have phone calls or visits.
A semi-open adoption provides some communication while maintaining more privacy. A closed adoption generally involves little or no direct contact.
Our team can explain each option so you can decide what type of relationship feels right for you.
