Adoption Options
A genuine commitment to customer service makes Lutheran Social Services an exceptional adoption agency. We recognize the needs of each member of the adoption triad (birth parent, child, adoptive family) and the uniqueness of each adoptive family. You can be assured that an LSS adoption professional will address your adoption with expertise.
For immediate information, fill out the adoptive parents online information request form. After submitting this online form, you will receive adoption information via email and an LSS staff member will contact you within one or two business days.
