Here's how she describes her agency:

Adoption Option, Inc. was founded in 1986 and is a licensed child placing agency in Missouri and Kansas. It has assisted in placing over 900 children with adoptive families in numerous states and many foreign countries.

Adoption Option believes birth parents are among the most selfless people in the world. We have worked with hundreds of birth parents through the years and have never met one who did not want to parent their baby. They make adoption plans for their child out of unconditional love putting their child s needs before their own. At Adoption Option we believe there are three ways to build a family birth, marriage, and adoption. Adoption is a natural way to build a family. We believe the child is special because of who he or she is, not because they are adopted.
