I'm in Central Ohio - Birthmother though. I don't bite.

I've heard good things about one local agency in Columbus. I worked with them briefly concerning my post-placement counseling. Great people. PM me if you would like their name.

Reminder - all agency discussions must occur through private messages. Please feel free to ask for information regarding a specific agency but replies must go through PM's. For example, Jenna could say who she approached here in Ohio but if you want to know about her experience, you need to pm her.

Hello Jenna,
We are adoptive parents in Ohio. I saw your message saying that you had personal experience with an agency near Central Ohio. Could you share their name with me? We have adopted twice before. Also, we have a foster situation that looks likely to become an adoption situation (unfortunate for the biological families when things happen that way). Anyway, I would love to hear from you.
Thank you.
Blessings,
Mary

Oh! I am sorry. I meant to post that message to Jenna via pm, but accidentally sent it to the board. I hope the message did not violate board rules?

Blessings,
Mary

No violation as long as Jenna responds via PM.
