About ADOPTION OPTIONS
Adoption Options is a Denver-area 501(c)(3) that provides a continuum of adoption and foster-care services across Colorado, including pregnancy counseling, infant and older-child placement, foster-to-adopt services, post-placement supervision, and family support programs. The organization emphasizes non-judgmental counseling for expectant/birth parents, support and education for adoptive families, and running targeted initiatives such as Fostering Healthy Futures and the SAGE Initiative. Founded in 1981, Adoption Options reports having helped thousands of families and children and operates programs to serve birthparents, adoptees and adoptive families statewide. The agency also holds recognitions for inclusive practice and ethical adoption standards and maintains an active public web presence and current IRS filings (Form 990) documenting recent fiscal activity. The organization partners with local funders and community programs to keep fees affordable, provide birth-parent scholarships and expand foster and adoption supports, and advertises 24/7 pregnancy counseling and emergency phone access to prospective clients and partners.
