Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada’s Adoption Services

Are You Pregnant or Seeking to Adopt?

Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada has been providing a professional and caring adoption program in Northern Nevada since 1941. Our highly-qualified, master’s degree-level staff have decades of experience providing expert adoption services. Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada’s Adoption Services program is one of only two licensed adoption agencies actually located in Northern Nevada. We are large enough to provide you with experience and expertise you desire, but small enough to treat you with the attention, support, and guidance you deserve. In 2016, we placed 11 babies in loving homes. Since the start of this program, we've completed more than 2,000 local adoptions.  

By serving women and families confronting the difficult realities of an untimely pregnancy, our goal is to provide hope and support by encouraging life-affirming decisions. Services are directed toward helping individuals and families assess their strengths, resources, and current situation in order to make the best decisions possible for themselves and their families.
