There are many resources on the Families Like Ours website designed to provide you with the information and help you need.  While it may seem easiest to just pick up the phone and call, please remember that we provide one-on-one assistance to several thousand families and professionals each year with a very limited staff. To help you find the answers you need efficiently, we suggest you:

  1. Read through the FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions) to see if your question has already been answered
  2. If you are new to adoption or foster care, read through our Adoption 101 information or visit the Getting Started section.
  3. Check out our Resource Guides, an area where we are always adding new content
  4. Browse our catalog of Training Programs
  5. Peruse the Families Like Ours Calendar Of Events related to adoption and foster care
  6. If you’re part of the professional community, visit the Professional Resources link at the top of every page.
If you need more than that, we have a several other options on the tabs above. You can …
  • attend one of the local support groups …
  • send us an email detailing your question or support need
  • set a phone appointment or and in-person office appointment
Calling our office is an option, but please keep in mind that we often experience very heavy phone traffic so we would suggest the above options first.

Book A Phone Consultation

We do our best to make as much time available for individual consultation appointments as possible. However, please keep in mind that annually, we provide one-on-one assistance via phone, in person, group and email support to several thousand families and professionals.

To better serve your needs, we have set up this automated system to allow you to self-schedule a time to speak with one of our adoption-foster care advisors over the phone.

Each appointment is scheduled in one hour increments.

There are currently no phone appointments available for self scheduling. Please check back later or select the Overview Tab above for other options.
