Yes. There should never be a fee to receive adoption information or counseling from an adoption agency. Learning about your options is important, and an adoption agency should provide that service objectively, with no pressure, and at no cost.

An adoption counselor can explain how adoption works, help you evaluate whether parenting may be realistic based on your circumstances, and help you understand what financial resources may be available during pregnancy. Counseling should always be provided without pressure.

No. Asking questions or requesting information does not commit you to adoption. It simply gives you the opportunity to learn more about adoption before making your decision.
