Abstract
The study represents a survey of an agency's services to mothers in relation to adoption and the relinquishment of children. The time of a baby's placement for adoption is interwoven with the time required by a mother in making the decision to surrender her child. The study will attempt to discover the possibility of earlier adoption placement of children from available evidence of possible earlier declsions to relinquish children on the part of mothers, and from evidence of the babies' own readiness for adoption.
