Exploring Adoption?
Are you interested in adopting a child, but aren't sure where to begin? The adoption process is extremely complex, and it's difficult to find reliable information about how to adopt in the maze of advertisements by adoption agencies and attorneys.
At Adoption Paths, we provide comprehensive, unbiased guidance about all the choices for domestic and international adoption. Through adoption classes, workshops, and seminars, we offer reliable information about the options. We also offer adoption consulting to help you create your personal plan to bring home the infant, newborn baby or child of your dreams.

Sara Lively of Adoption Paths since 2002 has taught adoption classes and adoption seminars in California to hundreds of people considering adoption.
An adoptive mother herself, she has also worked personally for the past six years with couples and singles of all family types to help them learn how to adopt, explore the complex issues associated with adopting, and get started on the adoption process most suitable for them.
As your adoption consultant, Sara will coach you in person or by phone to assess whether or not adoption is right for you. She’ll help you create your affordable adoption plan to adopt the child of your dreams smoothly and joyfully.
Based in the Santa Cruz area of California, Adoption Paths serves prospective adoptive parents from all of California. We offer adoption classes and consulting to people in the San Francisco, San Jose, Berkeley, Oakland, Salinas, and Palo Alto areas. In Central and Southern California, we are available for telephone consultations with hopeful adopters throughout the Central Valley, Los Angeles, Orange County, Inland Empire, and San Diego areas. We also consult by phone with residents of other parts of the United States (from Alaska to Arkansas to Pennsylvania) to help you assess your options for building your family through adoption.
