Life as Parents

  • Why do you want to adopt?
  • How do you expect your lives to change when a child enters your life?
  • What experiences with children have you had?
  • Given your work situations, who will be available to be with the child after placement?
  • What are your long-range child care plans, ex. will you have flexible schedules, will one parent stay at home, will you have in-home care?

Child desired

If you are interested in a child of another race, or ethnic group, you may want to mention this. You can do this within the profile, or in a separate cover letter to our office.
