Program areas at Legacy Adoption Services
Lutheran Adoption Services (las) specializes in identifying adoptive placements for children from Michigan's foster care system. We help a child find a "lifelong loving family." Every child needs love, shelter and guidance. These most basic of provisions are missing for some children, and the older the child, the direr the circumstances, especially when they come from an abusive or neglectful situation. In 2023, las facilitated adoptions for 218 youth.
Las provides postadoption Services, which include education, support, consultations, referrals, information search, therapy and facilitation between the adoptee and birth parents. In 2023, las assisted 75 families with postadoption Services.
