DESCRIPTION:
Have you ever thought about adoption, but are not sure it’s the right choice for you or your family? You’re far from alone; 81.5 million Americans have considered adoption. Becoming a child’s legal guardian is a significant commitment, but it’s also an opportunity to provide vital love and support to one of the 100,000 children in foster care waiting for a family.
The foster care system provides an indispensable refuge for children from unsafe homes, abusive parents, and other unhealthy environments. But foster care isn’t meant to be a permanent place for these children.
Unfortunately, there are a number of common myths and inaccuracies that can make the prospect of foster care adoption more intimidating than it should be for some people who could provide wonderful homes to deserving children.
