Spence-Chapin Services to Families and Children is a non-profit organization with over 110 years of adoption expertise.  We have expanded our services into Arizona to provide birth parents, adoptive families, and their children with wraparound adoption services and post-placement support. The Spence-Chapin Way of providing transparency throughout our process, and ongoing comprehensive programming for each member of the triad will enhance adoption services within the great state of Arizona.

Spence-Chapin accepts applications from families across the United States for this program.

Our social workers provide free, compassionate, nonjudgemental counseling to women and couples who are facing an unplanned pregnancy or who have recently given birth and are unsure about parenting.  For those who choose to make an adoption plan, we provide comprehensive guidance and support throughout the adoption planning process – including the ability to choose and meet the adoptive family, and select open adoption contact, if desired.  

Virtual Support Groups

We are pleased to bring our lifelong support services to the Arizona adoption community! All of our virtual support groups are currently available to Arizonans. Whether you’re seeking community as a birth parent, exploring your adoptee identity, or navigating the complexities of parenting a young child or teen adoptee, our monthly Zoom meet-ups provide safe spaces to share experiences, gain valuable insights, and build connections with others who understand your journey firsthand.

Spence-Chapin Announces Expansion into Arizona

超過110年嚟, Spence-Chapin 一直致力於我哋嘅使命,即係每個小朋友都應該有一個家庭,亦都努力達成我哋嘅願景,即係每個小朋友都屬於呢個世界,收養係一個值得慶祝嘅選擇,所有家庭都被擁抱。. Today, we are taking another step closer to that vision by expanding into the state of Arizona. Beginning in 2024, Spence-Chapin will be offering comprehensive Birth & Expectant Parent Services, home study services, and a full-service Domestic Adoption Program through our new regional office in Tucson, Arizona. 

In consideration of opportunities for growing our geographic reach, we carefully explored a multitude of factors, and identified Arizona to be a state with a great need for comprehensive and inclusive adoption services, where our programs would have a profound impact on the lives of those we plan to serve.

We are thrilled to be able to expand to Arizona, while continuing to provide the same high-quality and comprehensive programs and services throughout New York and New Jersey. 

We look forward to providing more details and information on our expansion into Arizona in the weeks and months ahead.
