We had an amazing experience working with BBAS to adopt our son. As an LGBT couple, they made us feel welcomed and respected throughout the entire process. The adoption process can be extremely daunting, but they seamlessly guided us through the home study process and everything that followed. They were extremely knowledgeable and showed kindness and support to the birth mothers they worked with. The birth mother we matched with was incredible and we are so thankful for her selfless choice and her trust in us. Our son is the light of our lives and we owe it all to the gift of adoption.

Zero reviews from birth mothers so, here's the first. It was a great experience all the way to delivery.
AFTER DELIVERY - it's basically....who are you? No services offered or suggested for therapy, which could have helped me tremendously. No follow up calls. Nothing. I wasn't expecting any handouts, but the lady I had could have been more compassionate. The nurses weren't even made aware that I was going through with adoption, and repeating myself over and over again got emotionally draining. Giving up a child on top of post-pardom damn near cost me my life. Once you have the baby and documents are signed, birth mothers are discarded like trash. There should be some type of helpful "meet and greet" between birth mothers and the adoptive parents that WE TOOK TIME TO CHOOSE to make sure they are the right people. The adoptive parents that I chose arrived in my room after I had the baby and left with her in a matter of seconds. I didn't even get to hold her and give myself that needed closure of my decision - as there was no mediation between myself and the family. The couple had been chosen and turned down three times prior to ME choosing them, and I'm sensing that's why they rushed away. However, I had no intentions of hurting them as the others did. Just being able to have MY time to say goodbye would have kept me sane, as it still hurts. I just wish the staff helped more, smh. Worse experience of my life but, the damage is done.

Do you like being treated like an annoyance? Want to feel like you're paying to be emotionally abused? Sign up with BBAS.
They constantly make you feel like horrible people for wanting to adopt and throwing road blocks every step of the way, while simultaneously taking your money. We're talking days to reply to paperwork and emails that would take minutes.
Never in my life did I imagine that as an LGBT couple *we would be asked if we could love a straight kid*. Yet we were, completely seriously.
Our surrogacy agency treated us like gold in comparison and actually got us a child at the end.

We are so thankful for the support and assistance of BBAS in building our family. Our birth mother chose us twice and BBAS was quick to guide us through the process through both adoptions. The office staff and our social worker Karen have always been available to talk and answer questions along the way. As a LBGTQ+ family, I felt that BBAS advocated for our family throughout the adoption process to link us with a very special birth mom who was looking for our exact family.
