Adoption is Life-Changing.

The adoption journey is an emotional one, for all parties. An expecting mom is making a courageous, though heart-wrenching, decision to trust the well-being of her child to a family she is only just beginning to know, and a hopeful adoptive family may have been longing for years for a child to welcome home.

To add to an already emotionally charged process, the layers upon layers of regulations and requirements are enough to make anyone’s head spin. With stakes about as high as they get, the thought of missing a critical step is unimaginable.

YOU WERE NEVER MEANT TO FACE THIS JOURNEY ALONE.

We exist to help.

At Adoption & Beyond, we come alongside expecting parents and hopeful adoptive families to help you navigate every step of the adoption journey with clarity and the confidence that nothing is slipping through the cracks. Rest assured our services are available to all and the agency prohibits discrimination based on race, color, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, marital status, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression.

I want to thank you and Shawna for all you have done for us throughout this portion of our journey. I appreciate all you have done for us and helping us get through this crazy time! Thanks again! You all have been so wonderful to work with!

Nicole

We really enjoyed our workshop with your agency. It’s what we missed when trying to learn about adoption from the Kansas Department of Children and Families. Your adoption education is excellent…

Melissa

Shawna and Julie have both been fantastic. Shawna was incredibly accommodating in getting this last visit and report wrapped up efficiently so we can expedite getting our court date. I’m grateful to have your team available to us as we continue on this journey.

Rachel

I LOVED being a part of A & B. While I wish my time following my passion for adoption had been longer lived, I am SO grateful that I was able to follow my dream for even a few short years. You are a very special person and the agency you have created is top notch. You should feel very, very proud! Let’s keep in touch via Facebook and otherwise.

Love,
