The first step toward adoption is attending one of our free information meetings.

There, our adoption specialists will provide detailed information about all of Spence-Chapin's programs and services. Topics covered usually include how to begin the process, the costs involved in adopting a baby and how to make it affordable. A highlight of these meetings is a presentation by new adoptive parents. Holding their son or daughter, they candidly share their personal experiences. Each meeting concludes with a question and answer session.

Registration is required in order to attend our free information sessions.
To register for a free domestic information meeting, please call
the Adoption Department at 212-369-0300.
