Already parenting? You still have options.
When being a parent has become too overwhelming to manage, it is important to know that you do have options.
Sometimes the financial strain is too much or the special needs of a child are too challenging. What once was a stable housing or work situation may have changed. A support system that was in place may have crumbled. Whatever is happening in your life right now, we can help you work through it and make the best decision for you and your family.

Support and Counseling
We offer a safe space to consider all your options with free, confidential, and supportive counseling. You can speak with us however you feel most comfortable—phone, email, text, in person, or via virtual video counseling. Our counseling and support are available 24/7 and in multiple languages. Our counselors will provide you with information and guidance on your options, including finding a loving adoptive family for your child. Spence-Chapin has helped many families find adoptive families for children ages 0 to 4, including those with severe medical needs. Our services are available for all women and families, regardless of age or immigration status.
Resources and Other Support
If you are struggling to parent, we may also be able to connect you with parenting support and mental health resources in New York, New Jersey, and Arizona.
Special Needs Adoption
If you’ve received an unanticipated diagnosis or experienced a complication during pregnancy or after birth, you may be unsure about parenting and unaware of all your options. Our social workers can meet with you confidentially to talk with you about your baby’s needs and help you understand your options.
