Open Adoption & Family Services

Family Building · South Carolina · Free

Adoption agency with strong LGBTQ+ inclusion and support. Worth contacting before starting fertility treatment to understand insurance, costs, and legal protections. Fertility preservation (egg/sperm banking) is best done before hormone therapy; insurance increasingly covers this. Pre-birth orders in surrogacy let both intended parents go on the birth certificate without post-birth adoption in supportive states. No cost — the program is grant-funded and confidentiality-protected.
