Great children are in need of homes
Nov. 15 is National Adoption Day, a special event designed to raise awareness of adoption and to celebrate the adoption of thousands of foster care children nationwide. Every year in the United States, more than 125,000 children are waiting in foster care to be adopted.
These are great kids. They didn’t choose to be abused or neglected, permanently separated from their birth parents and placed into foster care. These children are right here in your community, and they all deserve permanent homes.
Adopting from foster care is affordable and, even though the process can be complicated, these children are well worth it.
If you cannot provide an adoptive home for these wonderful children, there are numerous other ways to help.
Please consider looking further into foster care adoption by contacting your local Department of Human Services or Special Needs Adoption agencies. Every child deserves a save, loving, permanent home.
