Working with a nonprofit adoption agency can provide cost savings to people hoping to adopt a baby in the United States, but sometimes that can result in your adoption process taking longer because a big factor in the overall speed of the adoption process is how many potential birth families your adoption profile can be shown to in a specific period of time.  Working with a multi-state adoption agency which is also a nonprofit organization is a different story because they could potentially share your adoption profile with a larger group of people.  In this episode, we are talking with a nonprofit adoption agency that also serves multiple states so you can get a better understanding of how they help people bring home their babies. Learn From Me:Join The Free Training: www.myadoptioncoach.com/training Join The Adoption Community: www.facebook.com/groups/myadoptioncoachDetermine What Type Of Adoption Is Right For You:  www.myadoptioncoach.com/quiz
