Home Study Services

Catholic Social Services Pregnancy Support and Adoption Services provide all services pertinent to adopting a child. One of the first tasks an adoptive family faces in the adoption process is procuring a home study.

At CSS, we provide home study services for families engaged in our Infant Adoption Program, International Adoption Program and through our agreement with the State of Alaska Office of Children’s Services for children in foster care.

A home study is a very thorough assessment of your home that includes history of all members of the household, fingerprinting and background checks, a financial history for your family, mental health and physical health history and an assessment of the family’s readiness for adoption. The home study process generally takes two to three months to complete. Home Study costs vary from program to program due to the various requirements for each type of study.

If you have questions or are seeking home study services, please call our Pregnancy Support and Adoption Services main line at 222-7314. Depending on your specific needs, you will be connected with whichever program best suits you.
