West Coast Branch Office
Adoption services for families in CA, OR and WA are available from Holt’s West Coast Branch, even if you are using another placing agency.
We can help you adopt via international or U.S. adoption. If you are already working with another agency, we can complete your homestudy and provide post-placement services.

These remote meetings are open to families anywhere in the U.S.
