Types of Adoption Plans

OPEN ADOPTION

In an open adoption, you exchange all identifying information with the adoptive family. Full names, addresses, email, and phone numbers are shared. You have the opportunity to set up meetings, be a part of your child’s life, and even participate in important life events.(1)


CLOSED ADOPTION

If you would rather remain completely anonymous, you would choose a closed adoption. Your coordinator would choose the adoptive family based on your requests. No identifying information is shared, and the original birth certificate is sealed to protect your identity.


SEMI-OPEN ADOPTION

This is a plan somewhere in between the first two. First names are exchanged, but contact is done through your adoption coordinator. Photos, letters, and emails are sent to the coordinator first who forwards them on to the family. They in turn can communicate with you the same way.
