I'm in Georgia. We used Adoption Information Services in Lawrenceville, GA. They are a facilitator. They are super helpful every step of the way. They lead you to safe agencies. We didn't adopt from Georgia because of the 10 day waiting period. They help you with your home study, profile, just everything.
Their website is www.adoptioninfosvcs.com.

The company I work with, Christian Adoption Consultants, is located in GA. They are a consulting group and work with many safe, ethical agencies, and they also have their own agency right in GA, Hope For Adoption.
Feel free to contact me if you want more info or just to chat about either one. Best of luck to you!
"Our children are not ours because they share our genes...
they are ours because we have had the audacity to envision them.
That, at the end of the day...or long sleepless night,
is how love really works."

Well, in Georgia, after the birthmother signs her termination of parental rights, she has a 10 day period to change her mind. We adopted from Texas where as soon as the birth mother signs the TPR (72 hours after birth), then she can't change her mind. There are a few more states with no waiting period--such as Utah, Washington State, Colorado. These are the ones I know about.

That 10 day waiting period was rough. You are holding your breath the entire 10 days. At 12:01 on the 11th day my husband and I had a little party in our home. We also got a lot of very very early phones calls on the morning of the 11th day congratulating us.
