Financial Assistance During Your Pregnancy
If you are homeless, it is unreasonable to expect that you have health insurance, but that is okay! There are many birth mothers out there that are unable to afford it, so we point them in the right direction. You can actually get assistance through Medicaid, which will cover most of your prenatal care and the delivery of your baby. Now you might be thinking, what about all the other medical expenses and doctor’s visits? Adoption Choices of Colorado has you covered. Once you create an adoption plan with us and find an adoptive family, they will pay for all of the outstanding expenses. Keep in mind that putting your child up for adoption is not and should not cost you anything.
Medicaid is not the only financial assistance option that you have available to you. Colorado also has a plan that is known as Colorado 211. It helps you pay your monthly bills or other expenses. You will be provided with a personal financial counselor that will help point you in the right direction. They will complete an assessment of your income, expenses, debts, and taxes to create a short-term plan.
Birth Mother Housing Assistance
With our adoption agencies in Denver and throughout Colorado, you will be provided with utmost care. Being homeless means that you need proper housing to provide you and your baby with a healthy and safe environment. We want to ensure that you both are well taken care of during your pregnancy. Our housing can also act as a temporary situation until you are able to fully get on your feet again. Expenses that we cover include, but are not limited to rent, utilities, and phone. If you have any questions regarding your eligibility for housing assistance, please contact us to speak to an adoption specialist and share your situation. There is always someone there to help.
