Open Arms Adoptions Inc

Open arms adoptions provides a full range of services to families hoping to adopt from the foster care system. Specifically, we provide families with education and homestudy services to assist in preparing families to adopt from foster care. We search both within ohio as well as throughout the us in an attempt to "match" families with children whose needs they are able to meet. Open arms provides support, case management, referral and other services necessary to families as they transition children into their homes as well as for a minimum of 6 months following placement (most longer). During fye 6.30.24, oaa assisted in the placement of 29 children from foster care into their permanent families. This includes placement of 10 sibling groups.

Oaa provides both pre-service and ongoing training to foster and adoptive parents. Our pre-service training exceeds that which is required by ohio rules for both adoptive and licensed foster parents. This training focuses on attachment and trauma-informed parenting strategies designed to assist families with the healing their children require. Additionally, we offer opportunities at least 3 times monthly for families to meet their ongoing training requirements.
