HOME STUDIES
Home Adoption Studies will help you face the home study experience with confidence and the excitement that should accompany the prospect of welcoming a child into the family. The best advice is to relax, keep a sense of humor and be yourself.
Your home study provides an accurate portrayal of your family life, past and present. Our Self Assessment, found under the Forms section, will help you prepare for the first interview.
This process takes about 4 to 12 weeks and is used to determine your readiness for adoption. Because we are adoptive parents and birth parents ourselves, we understand that the adoption process can be a stressful one. Our goal is to relieve some this anxiety by connecting you with our case worker to help you with your individual needs.
Starting January 2011, Fee bases for home study is $200 application fee, $1200 for Domestic or International Home Study...
Other non-traditional home study fees are listed on our Fee Schedule in the Home Study Package on our Forms Page.

POST PLACEMENT REPORTS
Post placement reports are written after your child has been placed in your home. Home Adoption Studies visits you and your child in your home to observe how well you are both adjusting. These visits also evaluate and assess your child's adjustment, developmental milestones, and social skills since becoming a part of your family. The number and frequency of visits will depend on which state your adoption occurred in. Home Adoption Studies will communicate directly with your placing agency regarding the frequency of the post placements reports.
