I am Pregnant but have No Support or Financial Means to Raise My Child. What Choices Do I have?
An unplanned pregnancy often comes with anxiety and fear. It may be hard to think clearly and make decisions. Who can you trust? Where do you turn?
With no support and financial help, parenting your child can be highly challenging. Adoption can be a choice you decide to explore, providing a better future for yourself and your baby and making your pregnancy easier to handle. We at ACF encourage you to learn as much as possible about your unplanned pregnancy options before moving forward — to choose the right path for you and your baby.
ACF gives personal attention to women who care deeply about their newborn infant and choose to make a selfless and loving decision of placing their child for adoption.
According to Florida Law, if you make an adoption plan, ACF can provide you with:
Counseling. We can provide you with counseling for as long as you need it. We are here to help you feel emotionally and psychologically healthy.
Financial Help. We can help you cover costs like rent, food, utilities, maternity clothes, and transportation. This help is available during your pregnancy and up to six weeks post-birth.
Legal Representation. You will have your own attorney to consult and advise you of rights in the process.
Medical Expenses. ACF adoptions will make the payments to your service providers and doctors. However, the actual expenses will be covered by the adoptive family you’ve chosen as part of your adoption plan.
Housing Arrangements. ACF can assist pregnant women who need help with housing by helping them find a good, safe place to stay during their pregnancy.
ACF is a licensed, private adoption agency providing quality adoption services to women with unplanned pregnancies since 1992. Get 24/7 free and confidential support.
