Support Services - Birth Parents/Families

It is important to remember that birth parents and birth family continue to be a part of the adoption triad whether they continue to be an actually presence in a child’s life or not. C.A.S.E. provides support for the birth parent(s) in grieving the loss of their child upon relinquishment as well as other times in the future when memories of that child surfaces (i.e. having other children, telling a spouse/partner, dealing with self-esteem, and dealing with the larger issues of social and political opinion surrounding adoption.) C.A.S.E. also provides assistance to birth parents and adoptive parents in defining comfortable parameters for open adoption, acting as a mediator in negotiating a sensitive arrangement that is in the best interest of everyone, most important the birth/adopted child.
