Adoption is a legal process which permanently gives parental rights to adoptive parents.
It means taking responsibility for the child's health, safety, and education.
It is a lifelong commitment to a child.
The birth parent's rights and responsibilities are terminated, and the adoptive parent can be named on the birth certificate.
The child will have inheritance rights from the adoptive parent and will be eligible to receive social security benefits if the adoptive parent passes away while the child is still a minor.

Greenlight Family Services has been providing legal guardianship services since 2003.
Guardianship is legal custody that allows the caregiver to make decisions for the child in their care.
It differs from adoption because the biological parents' rights are not terminated.
Greenlight believes that guardianship is ideal in situations where the caregiver hopes to eventually return the child to their parents, or in situations where the parents are unwilling to have their rights terminated.
Guardianship allows the caregiver to make legal, medical, educational, and financial decisions for the child or adult in their care.
