PACC – Birth Parents

If you are looking for support in specific areas, please reach out and let us know. We have some resources here on our website for you but can connect you to many others.

• Resources – We have books, blogs, and resources available to send to you for whatever needs you have. There are several listed on our site under the Resources tab.
• Counseling – We have many staff that can meet with you for informal or formal counseling. We can also connect you to a private counselor if you want to seek help outside our agency.
• Support Groups – We would love to connect you with other birthmothers, either through our agency or with a local support group.
• Guidance in relationship with your adoptive family and child – We are here to help you navigate your relationship with your child’s adoptive family and your child. Whether it has been a few months or several years, please contact us so we can support you.

Below are some general websites that give various resources, articles, blogs, and support groups with other birth mothers that may give some support as you process the emotions you have from your adoption placement.

The Nightlight staff you worked with throughout your adoption will continue to support you after adoption. If you told us originally you did not want counseling but are reconsidering that, we would love to offer this service to you now. The Post Adoption Connection Center is here to provide additional support and give you a place to come to as needs arise. No matter how long it has been, Nightlight wants to connect with you and provide support.

Nightlight Christian Adoptions has acquired the files for several agencies over the years and we are here to support you if you placed years ago with one of these agencies. Contact us here at the Post Adoption Connection Center if you have lost touch with your previous caseworker and agency so we can support your needs.
