Part III Line 4aAdoption & Beyond, Inc. is a non-profit agency licensed by the states of Kansas & Missouri. Adoption & Beyond, Inc. assists with domestic, private, embryo, foster and international adoptive services. Adoption & Beyond strives to meet the needs of children, expecting birth parents and hopeful adoptive parents by providing quality adoption services in Kansas and Missouri before and after placement. Services are provided to expecting birth families considering adoption for their child. Each year, approximately 30 expecting birth parents inquire about the adoption services of the Agency. Expecting birth families considering adoptive placement for their child are provided with counseling, education, living expenses related to the pregnancy, placement services and post-placement support. In the event the birth parent chooses to parent, follow-up services and referrals are provided. Each year approximately 400 hopeful adoptive families inquire about the adoption service of the Agency. Adoptive families wishing to build their family through adoption, are provided with free consultations to discuss the six different avenues of adoption in order to help a family determine the right path to pursue for adoption efforts. Adoption & Beyond provides approximately 120 free consultations to families each year. The first step in the adoption journey for a hopeful adoptive family is an adoptive home study. In the adoptive home study process, families are required to take online educational training. The training builds a deeper learning for families and teaches them to always look at what is in the childs best interest as they approach all aspects of adoption. The home study is also an assessment process to determine whether a family has the ability to care for a child in a safe, nurturing and healthy environment. Adoption & Beyond provides approximately 100 home studies to prospective adoptive families each year. Upon placement of a child with an adoptive family, post-placement visits occur to ensure healthy adjustments for everyone. The reports are submitted to the court or country where the adoption occurred. Adoption & Beyond provides approximately 30 post-placement visits to adoptive families and their children each year.
