Find Open Adoption Families in Michigan [FAQ]
Does Michigan have open adoption records?
Michigan does not have automatic access to open adoption records for birth parents or adoptees. However, when you choose an open adoption with American Adoptions, the communication you establish with the adoptive family is built into your agreement — which means you don’t need to rely on state records to stay in touch.
How common are open adoptions?
Open adoptions are increasingly common. In fact, the vast majority of adoptions today include some level of openness, whether through occasional updates or regular in-person visits. According to research, birth parents, adoptive parents, and adoptees alike benefit from open adoption — with increased emotional well-being and stronger relationships.
How many kids are waiting to be adopted in Michigan?
While thousands of children are part of the foster care system in Michigan, many of them are waiting for permanent homes through foster care adoption. But when it comes to private infant adoption, families are often waiting for a birth mother like you to choose them — not the other way around. That means you get to decide when and with whom the adoption happens.
