Mother and Child Safety
|
Home Study |
A Home Study is an evaluation of the adopting person(s), their home and surrounding environment, and much more. It is a critical document for you to be aware of. |
Risks |
| Risks are many in the adoption process. Being aware of them and how to avoid problems is critical for the safety of you and your child. |
Infant Safe Haven |
| Infant Safe Havens have been established in almost every state. These are places you can leave your child without the risk of abandonment or abuse. |
Child Abuse |
Child Abuse: A child is all too often the victim of physical, emotional, and/or sexual abuse. If you are the parent of a child and feel so stressed or depressed that you are afraid of hurting a child or someone else close to you, please call one of these resources. |
Domestic Violence |
Domestic violence can be reduced or prevented. Check out these resources that help anyone involved in a domestic violence situation. They also provide information on sexual assault, battering intervention and prevention programs. |
Shelters |
Shelters for pregnant women and their babies in the U.S. and in Canada (Violetnet.org and Acws.ca and Womennet.ca) are provided by both government and private agencies. Many are run by volunteers through local religious organizations. You may be able to find local women's shelters in your phone book or by calling information. |
