Through its Arizona offices, the nonprofit is committed to building meaningful partnerships with local organizations while helping families navigate every stage of the adoption journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more than 115 years, Spence-Chapin has helped children find loving, permanent families and today provides adoption and family support services throughout the United States and internationally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are honored to become part of Arizona\u2019s community and work alongside the many organizations already supporting children and families,\u201d said Kate Trambitskaya, CEO of Spence-Chapin. \u201cOur goal is to build meaningful partnerships, remove barriers to accessing adoption and family support services and ensure women and families have access to compassionate, ethical care throughout every step of their journey.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since establishing its Arizona operations, Spence-Chapin has built partnerships with hospitals, behavioral health providers and family-serving organizations across the state while already helping local families navigate counseling, adoption planning and placement services, including facilitating its first Arizona adoption placements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A hallmark of Spence-Chapin\u2019s approach is its commitment to removing barriers through a transparent flat-fee adoption model, which helps families better understand and plan for adoption costs, along with guidance before, during and after placement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The organization provides comprehensive domestic adoption services, including its longstanding nationwide&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/spence-chapin.org\/es\/adopcion-para-necesidades-especiales\/\">Programa de adopci\u00f3n para necesidades especiales<\/a>, the only program of its kind in the country, which supports expectant parents who receive an unanticipated diagnosis or experience a complication during pregnancy or after birth. The program connects infants and children who have a wide range of medical and developmental needs, including those resulting from prenatal substance exposure, with permanent, loving families while waiving all professional placement fees. Since the program\u2019s inception in 1995, Spence-Chapin has placed over 550 medically fragile children with their forever families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spence-Chapin provides free, confidential and nonjudgmental counseling for new and expectant parents, regardless of circumstance or immigration status. The organization connects women experiencing unplanned pregnancies and crisis situations to housing, healthcare, legal and community resources and provides financial assistance for pregnancy-related expenses as permitted by state law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spence-Chapin also offers temporary newborn respite care through its&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/spence-chapin.org\/es\/cuidados-provisionales\/\">Programa de atenci\u00f3n provisional<\/a>, which provides short-term care for infants while birth parents maintain their parental rights, allowing them additional time to consider their options. The organization also provides domestic and international home study and comprehensive post-placement services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond its domestic adoption programs, Spence-Chapin\u2019s global impact extends through its&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/spence-chapin.org\/es\/adopcion-internacional\/\">Programas de adopci\u00f3n internacional<\/a>, which connect children from South Africa, Colombia, Costa Rica, Jamaica and the Eastern Caribbean with loving families across the United States. The organization\u2019s humanitarian initiatives also include the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/spence-chapin.org\/es\/programa-de-abuelas\/\">Programa de abuelas<\/a>, which benefits more than 500 children living in orphanages in Colombia, South Africa and Ghana each year. The program trains and matches \u201cGrannies,\u201d caregivers from local communities, with children in institutional care to provide consistent one-on-one nurturing and support, helping them reach developmental milestones and thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAt Spence-Chapin, adoption is not a single event but a lifelong journey,\u201d said Katy Zaragoza, manager of adoption services at Spence-Chapin Arizona. \u201cFamilies need support before, during and long after placement, and expectant parents deserve access to unbiased information, resources and compassionate care that empowers them to make the decisions that are best for themselves and their children.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information about Spence-Chapin\u2019s Arizona services, visit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/spence-chapin.org\/es\/arizona\/\">www.spence-chapin.org\/arizona<\/a>&nbsp;o llamar&nbsp;<strong>480-207-5050<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Spence-Chapin Services to Families and Children<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded in 1908, Spence-Chapin Services to Families and Children is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping children find loving, forever families and providing counseling and support to children and the families to whom they have been born or entrusted.
