What makes the Nebraska Children’s Home Society unique is that it is the ONLY agency in the United States that for more than 115 years has not charged fees for adoption services. In addition to this incredible distinction, private funds support more than 80% of NCHS programs and services. 

Countless studies have proven that the strength of the family has a direct bearing on the vitality of a community. Strong family units lead to better academic success, less crime and poverty and less need for government assistance and support.  The social and economic impact that the Nebraska Children’s Home Society programs have provided the state is impossible to measure.

Nebraska Children’s Home Society is more than an adoption agency. We help women facing unplanned pregnancies develop parenting or adoption plans, provide prenatal and parenting classes, foster care, early childhood development programs, and community & neighborhood–based services.
