_{Please note: Adoption Academy provides educational resources only. We are not adoption counselors, agencies, or attorneys, and we cannot provide guidance about individual adoption situations. For questions related to your specific circumstances, please reach out to a licensed adoption professional in your area, such as an adoption agency, home study provider, or adoption attorney. We also cannot offer legal or financial advice. Our course is designed as a self-guided resource to help you better understand the domestic adoption process, but professional advice should always come from qualified experts.}
