Domestic Adoption Programs

Since 1989, FRC has been involved directly in more than 1000 domestic placements. Our mission is to find homes that will provide children with the love, nurturing and understanding they need to grow, develop and thrive. Our commitment is to support all birth mothers, independent of whether they choose to make an adoption plan for their child. Our success is based on fitting birthmothers' preferences with adoptive parents' interests.

We offer:

  • Traditional Adoption Program (TAP)
    Adoptive families create a profile, which is then shown to birthparents working with FRC to create an adoption plan.
  • Agency-Assisted Adoption Program (AAAP)
    Families create a customized program using advertising, networking, internet outreach and other creative methods to find a birthmother.
  • African American / Bi-Racial Adoption Program
    Family Resource Center is proud to offer a special grants program to families interested in adopting an African-American or bi-racial child.
  • Home Study Services Program
    For Illinois families that are adopting out-of-state, or through another placement agency, FRC is happy to conduct and document the home study portion of the adoption process. Included in our Home Study Services Program is assistance with DCFS licensing and post-placement services.
