local adoption agencies to work w/ a young teenager?

I know a family with a teenage daughter who has been concealing her pregnancy, she's fairly far along and has decided she wants to put the baby up for adoption (the parents aren't really able to care for the baby either). She has not taken care of herself and has done very little in terms of prenatal care. Does anyone know of any local places to contact to start the adoption process? I found a website called Birthright.org in Floral Park, so they'll start there, but with probably only a month until she gives birth, time is rather limited.

Thank you!!

Catholic charities
And contact the archdiocese of RVC also.

I am sure that there are many families right here who would be willing to adopt!!!!

But the IrishEcho (a newspaper) always has ads from families.

We are a hopeful adoptive couple and know many others looking to adopt privately. Please take a look at our website and if you think she might like us, send her our information. We are working with an attorney instead of agencies as they are all about profit and private is more personal.... www.michellengregwantoadopt.com
