We Want to Adopt

Finding the Right Agency

We believe the best way to begin the adoption process is to find an agency that lines up with your values. Aggieland Adoptions is the adoption program of Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach (APO). We are first and foremost a Christian ministry. Our faith drives our passion to serve children born from unplanned pregnancies. No matter the outcome, our heart is to see these children raised in loving, stable families ~ either biological or adoptive.

We invite you to learn more about us and our values so you can determine if we are a good fit for you. We give you a great deal of information about our agency upfront, so you don’t have to put much time, effort, and money into research.

Our information packet is free and online. (See link below.) If you are comfortable with what you read about us, you are invited to a free Informational Meeting.

Building Your Family Through Adoption

The thought of adopting a child can be exhilarating (and sometimes terrifying!). We want to take the “terrifying” out of the equation for you and make your adoption experience as smooth as possible. We are a down-to-earth adoption agency with a caring staff with years of experience helping couples build their families through adoption. Because adoption is all about families, you become a member of ours when you choose to work with Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach.

We promise to be by your side every step of the way. We provide lifelong support for our adopted children, adoptive parents, and birth parents. Our extraordinary long-term care is what sets us apart from other agencies.

Basic Requirements For Potential Adoptive Couples

The couple is a man and woman who have been married for at least three years.
Both are Christians and members of the same Bible-believing church.
One parent will be a “stay at home” parent (working no more than 20 hours per week outside of the home) for the child’s first year. Husbands and wives can creatively share this responsibility.

Our Credentials

All adoptions are completed according to regulations set forth by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the Texas Family Code. Aggieland Adoptions adheres to and exceeds the standards set by our licensing body and is committed to full transparency.

We are accountable to God first, our board of directors next, and the community in general. Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach is a member of the Christian Adoptions Alliance, Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA) and is a United Way partner agency.

Online Information Packet

Our connection to APO is an outer circle at best. We are the parents of someone who gave their child up for adoption. I thought my husband and I would have very little interaction with the adoption agency, but I was wrong. This agency's representative has gone above and beyond the paperwork and legalities. She has given godly advice both before the baby was born and continuing long after the adoption was finalized. I know if I called her today she would welcome my call and take the time to address my concerns with prayer and love.

We went through the process of adoption through Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach (APO) and couldn't me more pleased. The adoption process has its beautiful and awkward moments, and APO helped make it comfortable and smooth. They are an extension of our family now and we are so blessed and grateful for them being a huge part in taking us from a family of three to a family of four! Thanks and God Bless You Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach!

What a great organization! I cannot say enough about the friendliness of the staff. Their genuine concern for the young families is evident in everything they do. I love volunteering there.

Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach is an incredible resource that the Bryan/College Station area has to offer for unplanned pregnancies. They provide a variety of services for all stages of pregnancy. Staff is considerate, well trained, non-judgmental, and kind.

APO has been such an incredible blessing to us and to our community! We joined the APO family in June of 2011, when we attended an adoption seminar. We had no idea the amount of support and priceless friendships that we would receive....and most importantly our precious son!! The amount of love and compassion this ministry gives to our community is irreplaceable and I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone looking to adopt, volunteer, or seeking help with an unplanned pregnancy.

Amazing! My wife and I adopted both of our children through APO. The staff at APO does an amazing job helping birth parents and adoptive families through one of the most difficult and happiest times of their lives. They show kindness and compassion to everyone they work with and are both professional and loving at the same time. We love sharing our kids adoption stories, and APO is a huge part of both. We have referred several friends to APO and will continue to do so.

Great staff and family friendly atmosphere! The people involved truly want to serve and care deeply about the young mothers and children they are able to work with. Awesome opportunity for fellowship and community!

My family came to this organization during a painful time when we had a hole in our heart. We were seeking out different organization and doing research to find our next step. We came to APO just to listen and learn. It didn't take long before we knew this was the perfect place for us. They are more than just a resource for family with unplanned pregnancy and for families seeking adoptions. They are a home for the hurting that provides a family no matter what caused the pain. The members of the staff soon turn into a brothers/sisters or uncles/aunts. They can’t fix your pain, but they vow to walk with you in it. Through their experience, love, wisdom and trust, you soon find that your path you’re on seems a little less lonely because they are with you and it makes a worlds different!

I was going through a very tough time, and this organization held my hand the whole way. I experienced working with Karla, who by the way is sweet as ever! When I came home from the hospital from having my baby, I was really depressed. I was refusing to talk to anyone because I had just given my baby boy up for adoption. Karla kept reaching out to me until I was ready to talk about it. Without APO I don't know where I would be today. I am very grateful for having them when I was at my lowest, and I will always remember the great staff.

I started volunteering at Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach the fall of my freshman year of college. APO has many wonderful programs for those needing support during/post pregnancies. I am blessed to volunteer with such a compassionate organization, and watch many lives be touched. God is truly working through APO!

Our hearts are full and our family is complete. APO truly has the best interest of the children at heart. They guideded us and the birth mom step by step trough a stressful and emotional process. They were always available when we had questions or concerns. We appreciate that they take the time to build a one on one relationship with the adopting families and with the birth moms.

Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach is a wonderful organization!! Our student group, Pro-Life Aggies, has babysat during and provided dinner for their Mama's Club in the past, and we've seen first-hand how caring they are toward these young mothers and their children. APO is doing such great things for mothers in College Station/Bryan!

Pro-Life Aggies

APO helped through the hardest thing I'll probably ever have to go through! The lady I worked with was so much help. They helped me with a lot, from counseling to helping financially. From phones calls, text, emails, and meetings, they always check up on you to make sure things are going ok. They always offer to come to you instead of going into the office. I will forever be grateful for their help. Absolutely loved APO!!!
