In 2017, Aspiranet and Fresno County Department of Social Services collaborated to develop an adoption support program. Our mutual goal was to strengthen and empower adoptive families. The result of the collaboration is Aspiranet REACH Fresno County, a program designed to provide Resources, Education, Advocacy, Crisis Counseling, and Hope to adoptive families in our community.

REACH services are available at no cost to adoptive families residing in Fresno County who have adopted through the Fresno County Department of Social Services.

• Education, referral, and advocacy services to help parents locate and access services in Fresno County.

• Crisis counseling, support counseling, and case management services

• Parent support groups for adoptive parents (child care provided)

• Community education, presentations and workshops on adoption issues

• An adoption lending library

• Referrals to local adoption professionals and child-serving agencies

• Quarterly newsletters

• The Aspiranet REACH Fresno County website
   

REACH services are available Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Feel free to visit our office or contact our staff for more information about assisting your family.
