To learn more about adoption through foster care, please attend one of our orientations. They are approximately two hours in length, and will provide an overview of the adoption process. We will answer your questions, and you will receive some initial paperwork to review. All of our orientations are currently virtual. Orientation materials and a link to access the virtual meeting will be emailed to you prior to the scheduled orientation.
Legacy Adoption Services (formerly Lutheran Adoption Service) is a joint partnership between Samaritas and Wellspring Lutheran Services. Both agencies handled adoptions individually in Michigan for many years. In 1977, the agencies agreed to join forces in order to provide more loving, forever homes for children in foster care who needed permanent placement. Since its partnership inception, LAS has found homes for thousands of Michigan foster care youth.
