Book Description

January 8, 2006
Journeying Through State Adoption is a practical guide for anyone who desires to adopt a child and who needs information to begin. It gives you a complete roadmap for navigating the state foster care system. You will walk through the touching story of a family who pursued their desire to share love with a child in need.

Additionally, Journeying Through State Adoption is for those who want to learn more about the state foster care system, professionals who work within the system, and people who serve as advocates for foster and adopted children.

This guide helps readers answer some vital questions regarding adoption:

  • What are the requirements to become an adoptive parent?
  • How do I get started?
  • What kind of children are waiting to be adopted?
  • Is there a child right for my family?

Journeying Through State Adoption includes helpful resources such as contact information for the child welfare agency in every state, listings for many nation-wide adoption support groups, help in identifying and obtaining subsidies for adoptive families, and a state-by-state definition of children with special needs.

Join one family as they discover the answers to these and many other questions during their step-by-step journey!
