What is included in the total fees?
America World provides a detailed, inclusive cost breakdown for each adoption program. This means that our agency has listed every possible cost a family could incur and given price ranges applicable to families living in any state. We recognize the need for transparency and trust between your family and our agency. It is important for families to have an accurate estimate of what the specific costs involved are and when they will be due. Not all agencies provide this detailed cost estimate to prospective adoptive parents. We would strongly encourage families comparing agencies to ask what exactly is included in the total fees quoted and what fees are not.
