Post Adoption Services

Adoption is a lifelong process for all parties to an adoption. While the vast majority of adoptions have positive outcomes for the children and their families, many adoptive families need supportive services at some time.  NYSCCC is dedicated to promoting the availability and sustainability of adoption support and preservation services in NYS in order to ensure a permanent, loving family for every child.
