I'd like to know more about them, too. My husband and I are starting to save money for an infant adoption and we wanted to use this agency.

My husband and I are Catholic Charities adoptive parents!

We had an amazing experience and could not have asked for a better fit.

Feel free to contact me with any questions, I'm happy to share!

I'm very curious to know about your experience! My husband and I are considering our local CC. If you don't mind me asking, were there hidden costs? We understand that they are a non-profit organization. Did you incur the birth mother's medical expenses, however?

Here is our timeline with Catholic Charities

Started classes in March 2011.
Home study done July and August 2011.
Case worker provided us incorrect information and home study was never completed.
CC waiting to approve home study due to lost paperwork that we submitted again in March 2012.
Now we are waiting....April 2012.
