Going through the steps to adoption is sometimes confusing. What's a homestudy? How do you get it? What should you pay for one? Once you have your homestudy what agency will you adopt with? Who should you trust? How long will you wait?
Your Crystal Adoption Consultant has the training, adoption experience, information and the connections to advise you on what is best for your particular situation rather than a generic adoption plan that works for those on a waiting list. They are dedicated to you and your personal adoption plan.
See our short video to understand why this is important!
Are you a Facilitator?
No. And due to the way our services work families not able to use the benefits of a facilitator due to state regulations can still use our services with no problems.
We’re already working with an adoption professional. Can we work with you too?
Not a problem at all! Our program is designed to work alongside any other program you’re doing now and won’t interfere with it.Many couples use our program in addition to their current agency to increase their resources, preparation and opportunities for getting presented and chosen to adopt.
Gay adoption? Single parent Adoption? Families with children?
Crystal Adoptions works with everyone! We like that we are not regulated by anyone’s criteria of a good parent! Your consultant has helped create families with and without children, same sex couples, older couples, singles, married, large families, and those seeking open adoption or closed.The reason we network with so many other agencies is to locate agencies for you that work with your particular family situation.
How long will we be waiting to adopt?
Once we help you get your paperwork in order it has been our experience that we can usually locate the right agency with an adoption situation in less than 6 months.As of January of 2010, out of 75+ adoptions, the average time for placement was actually 2-3 months if a family was open to race and gender.Obviously, the stricter the criteria you give for the child the longer to find the situation that fits that criteria.
Is this a good investment?
As trained professionals we are able to evaluate costs, situations and normal vs. excessive fees which can literally save the you thousands of dollars and months of waiting.

Conversations With Our Clients
Good morning!
I couldn't sleep so I decided to check emails, and I'm so excited about your
reply to our letter and profile! :) I
honestly wish we would have found you three years ago, and I wouldn’t feel like
they were years ‘wasted’. Your
suggestions are just what we need to give us a jumping point! Thank you again, and we will be talking…

My husband and I had an excellent experience working with Dee on
our road to adoption. Dee was vital in assisting us with locating an agency to
complete our home study and in ultimately connecting us to the agency that
matched us with the birth mother to our daughter. Dee had contacts with
numerous adoption professionals all over the country, however always made it
very clear that she fundamentally believed that our child would find us. It was
that calm reassurance that made the wait for our daughter bearable. Dee was
always available to answer questions, provide a listening ear, or give encouragement.
We are so grateful for the role she played in bringing our precious daughter
home. ----Sarah M.
We really liked it that someone kept in touch with us often. We weren't
always wondering if someone was really there. Sometimes called and talked 2 or 3 times
a day! It was nice feeling...like I had someone to call when I needed them and
not just during work hours. ----The Petersen Family
Excellent, personable, encouraging, helpful, kind, informative, great! We've already recommended this agency to others! ---The Andrews
Thank
you for sharing all the details with me. The process feels like a 1,000
piece puzzle to me sometimes...where you know the end result but you just don't
know how long it will take and how easy or hard it will be...but patience and
perseverance are key to completing. --K. Smith
