We are here to listen, not to judge.  We’ll help you take a stock of your situation, organize your thoughts and feelings and make the best choice for yourself and your baby.  Hudson Valley Adoption Services is a NYS licensed and approved, private adoption agency.  We give  personal attention to women who care deeply about their newborn infant and choose to make this unselfish decision.

HVAS gives you all the adoption help you need before and after the birth of your baby.

Please take a few moments to read about some of your pregnancy and adoption options.

If you are pregnant or already parenting, and you are considering adoption as an option for your child, we can help you to:

• Make your own personal adoption plan.
• Choose and meet the family for your child.
• Decide on open or confidential adoption.
• Get help with pregnancy related and post birth expenses.
• Keep in touch with your child in the future if you choose to do so.
• Find support groups, as well as individuals, willing to share their experiences when faced with your situation.

You have rights under the law and HVAS will explain those rights to you so that you can make an informed decision about what is best for you and your child.

Our adoption professionals have over 20 years of adoption experience giving personal attention to pregnant women.
