ACTION Adoption Services

Welcome to ACTION, Inc!

ACTION, Inc. is a private non-profit adoption agency licensed by the State of Ohio founded and operated by adoptive mothers/licensed social workers.

We invite you to stop by our agency or call us at your convenience so that we may assist you in finding the children you were meant to have…Families are always welcome at our Adoptive Parent Support Group which meets every Friday night at 7:00 pm.

History of ACTION

ADOPTING CHILDREN TODAY - INFORMATION/OPTION NETWORK, better known as ACTION, Inc., began in 1994 as an adoptive parent support group. Several of the adoptive mothers who began ACTION were also social workers, and they began to dream of ACTION growing into a full service adoption agency. In 1997, three of the mother/social workers, Patricia A. Hill, Sheila Jenkins and Linda McCallister, began the licensing process to open an adoption agency. When their license was granted by the State of Ohio in February of 1998, they had a list of families ready to begin the adoption process. ACTION continues to provide pre- and post-adoptive services to families as a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation.

A.C.T.I.O.N.'s Mission

At A.C.T.I.O.N. we believe that all children have the right to a loving, caring and supportive family to aid in their growth as moral, functional members of society. Our commitment is to aggressively recruit families for waiting children across the United States in order to create Forever Families.

There are times when birth parents, because of their life circumstances, feel that it is in the best interest of their child to be placed in an adoptive home. Our agency supports this choice, and we offer support and professional assistance in helping those parents design an adoptive plan for their infant.

We believe in educating perspective and adoptive families as well as the community on adoption.

ACTION Adoption Services Children's Program Fund

Help us expand the Friday night children's program at ACTION.  This is a wonderful opportunity for the children of ACTION to meet other children who've been adopted.  The program provides life lessons for kids, art and craft activities, and even snacks!  Also, for parents, our children's program keeps young minds and hands occupied while parents join in support group and/or training.  But we need your help to continue this great service to our kids.  Click on the link below to join in our fundraising efforts!
