B eacon House Adoption Services is a licensed 501(c) (3) non-profit adoption agency founded in Louisiana, with additional offices in Florida and Mississippi. Since our founding in 1989, Beacon House has been dedicated to serving birth parents and adoptive families throughout the United States. Our sole purpose is to provide services related to the perma- nent placement of infants and children. We believe every child deserves a continuous, nurturing relationship from the earliest age possible. Since our inception, Beacon House has helped more than 1,860 infants and children find their forever homes. Our knowledgeable and compassionate staff provide personal- ized, one-on-one care to birth parents considering adoption. We offer counseling services, financial assistance for basic needs,
and emotional support tailored to each individual’s circum- stances. Our goal is to help birth mothers navigate this time of crisis, make a decision that brings peace, and leave our program stronger than when they entered. Beacon House is equally committed to supporting adoptive families. As a full-service agency, we provide assistance with home study preparation and approval, adoptive parent waiting pool management, post-placement services, and finalization support. We guide waiting families with confidence, care, and compassion through every step of their adoption journey. At Beacon House, we are honored to be a part of this life-chang- ing process for women, children, and families. Our team loves what we do—and we are proud to stand for hope, love, and lifelong connections.
