Choose An Adoption Agency
One of the first things you need to do is choose an adoption agency to work with. You need someone you feel comfortable with and who is willing to walk you through the process. Don't choose just anyone. Make sure the agency is licensed in your state. Feel free to ask as many questions as you like. It's important that you know what the agency is going to do for you.Complete The Home Study
A worker will have to come out and do an assessment of your home situation. They are going to look for things like whether you have been convicted of child abuse, whether the home is suitable, whether you can legally afford the child and so on. All of these factors come together and help the agency determine whether you are a suitable candidate for adoption or not.Start Searching For A Child
Once you get through the home study part of the process, you can start looking for a child who is going to work for your particular situation. Look through the list of children who are waiting for someone to give them a loving home.On average, 135,000 children get adopted each year. If more and more people keep looking at adoption as an option, more children will get a loving home to grow up in and call their own.
