After Placement and Beyond

Post placement supervision will be provided by the Wyoming Children’s Society. The purpose of this service is to support the adoptive family with the transition following placement and in the adjustment of becoming an adoptive family. During this time any questions or concerns that may arise will be discussed. Wyoming Children’s Society mandates a minimum of three visits with the family that will allow the court information on how the transition is going for the child and family. During these first six months the child remains in legal custody of the Wyoming Children’s Society and physical custody is given to the adoptive family. The WCS will also provide ongoing support to the birthparents as they move forward with their lives post-placement.

Wyoming Children’s Society has worked since 1911 building families through adoption. We are committed to helping our birth parents and adoptive families for a lifetime. Once an adoption is finalized in court, Wyoming Children’s Society is available for support services at anytime the birthparent and the family would like support, information or guidance about the life-long process of adoption.
