They did find us a match, but their follow up care of their birth mom's is basically non-exsistant! How do you provide counseling and follow up care to women all over the US? The agency flys birth mom's into Utah, away from all their resources, and medicaid. THANK GOD our birth mom did not go to Utah, and was able to stay in her home state, she was covered by medicaid and had her family for support. We set up all her follow up services and couseling, AGA did nothing. I hate to make blanket general statements, but ALL of the agencies in UT that fly bmom's to UT for delivery are under close scrutiny as compeltely unethical. Make the choice by ethics! We made it clear to them we would not accept a match where the bmom had flown to UT, because we didn't agree with it. They have done nothing for our child's bmom, in fact we had to get after them to even send her the post partum expenses she was promised! She was told we had not paid our fees, and we HAD. Over all, when we adopt again, I will look for an agency that takes better care of their birth moms!
This agency is in Sandy Utah. They have a wonderful domestic newborn African American program. They are wonderful to their birthmothers and their adoptive families. Fees are low and are not due until placement. They are very attentive and do an awsome job on all ends.

Great Agency
My good friend and I have both adopted African American newborns from them. They were great to work. I would recommend them to anyone!
I completely DISAGREE!
