Jewish Family Service Enhances Adoption Service Offerings

Jewish Family Service (www.jewishomaha.org) is proud to offer adoption home study services to prospective adoptive parents. Individuals and couples are considered regardless of religious affiliation or sexual orientation. Jewish Family Service’s professional adoption coordinator is skilled in acting as a liaison in the often complex adoption process.

Jewish Family Service provides individualized service by completing a Domestic or International Home Study, and any necessary follow-up support. They believe that adoption is a life-long process, not a single “event.” Therefore, they offer assistance and resources to families for as long as necessary.

Jewish Family Service provides flexible scheduling to accommodate your busy lifestyle. As an affiliated member of the Nebraska Adoption Agencies Association (NAAA), they offer Domestic Home Study services to any individual or couple working with an attorney or licensed child-placing agency. Jewish Family Service also provides International Home Study services as their accreditation allows, in compliance with the Hague Convention on the protection of children and cooperation in respect of intercountry adoption. Competitive rates include two post-placement follow-up visits as required by the state of Nebraska. Home Studies are generally completed in eight to 12 weeks, and are valid for one year following the date of completion.

Jewish Family Service is a Child Placing Agency licensed in the state of Nebraska. Their primary service areas include the Omaha and Lincoln communities. Other areas will be considered on a case by case basis. Call (402) 330-2024 for more information, or visit www.jewishomaha.org.
