Is funding available to help with adoption costs?
Financial assistance through the United Methodist Church is not directly available to those going through the adoption process. There are United Methodist-related agencies that offer adoption services or other educational, counseling or family support services. Each agency can explain the financial services and resources it offers. Persons who adopt through the United Methodist-related services may pay less than those who go through other agencies. Individual members, church organizations and local churches give generously to the United Methodist-related adoption services, making these reduced costs possible.
