Yes, if you choose adoption, your pregnancy-related expenses will be covered. However, it’s important to note that there’s a difference between your pregnancy-related expenses being covered and receiving money directly from the family who will be adopting your child, which is illegal.
Since every state has special laws regarding what expenses can be covered during adoption, speaking with a trustworthy adoption agency is critical. Other expenses, like housing, food, utilities, and more, may be covered during adoption.
While Alpha Center doesn’t provide adoption services, we’re here to support you as you navigate your pregnancy options—and we can refer you to an adoption agency in the area.

Importance Of Working With A Trustworthy Adoption Agency
Adoption is a loving, selfless choice that provides a future for your child. However, there are many legal implications involved in the adoption process. This is why working with a reputable adoption agency is critical.
A trustworthy adoption agency will pair you with an adoption coordinator who will ensure you fully understand the adoption process. They will also work with you to create an adoption plan, a document outlining your goals and desires with adoption.
You will also have the opportunity to meet with an adoption counselor. Since adoption is an emotionally complex decision, an adoption counselor will help you work through any difficult emotions you’re experiencing. It’s important to remember that your desires need to be valued and respected during the whole process.
What To Do Before Choosing Adoption
Before making a pregnancy decision, knowing all you can about each option is essential. The following checklist can help:
- Get an ultrasound (our limited ultrasounds verify key pregnancy details)
- Make sure all your questions are answered
- Schedule an options consultation to ensure you know all you can about your options and resources available to you
You’re not alone in this. At Alpha Center, we’re here for you. Contact us today to learn all the ways we can help.
