All of Flourish's adoptive families are home study approved, which means they went through an intense screening process including FBI background checks, state criminal checks, child abuse checks, medical exams, multiple inspections of their home, as well as the health of their marriage, mental and financial stability.
We also recommend you meeting the family you choose in person, as well as building a relationship before delivery through calls, texts, and emails. This will allow you to establish a bond as well as mutual trust before the baby is born.
