Question

a few years ago my mom and i were looking at websites that showed pictures of children that needed home...i forgot them but i would like to look back at them...do you know any?

& if you have adopted before/are going to adopt can you tell me about it? My family & i would still love to adopt but we heard its crazy expensive

Answer 1

children,youth and family department.  (add the name of the state you live in) just google them, it comes right up.

Answer 2

It is NOT expensive if you adopt from the Foster Care system.  It is virtually FREE.

Look at your states Department of Family Services or Children Protective Service or Social Services.  Most states have websites with pictures and a little blurb about the foster kids waiting to be adopted.

Answer 3

if you want to adopt from china and korea you can go to http://www.aacadoption.com/  This is a description from their website.

               A.A.C. is a licensed, private, non-profit professional adoption agency. Working together with concerned individuals, we can make a difference in the lives of the world's most special children. We can work easily with out of state couples. AAC is in the process of Hague Accreditation.

Answer 4

www.reesesrainbows.com  or something like that.  It has children with Downs Syndrome and most of them have grants available for their adoption.  

I would rather you look into foster care, though.  I adopted a large sibling group for no cost at all.

Answer 5

This site links to photolistings from across the U.S, as well as a few good international sites: http://www.comeunity.com/adoption/waitin...

If you are interested in adopting or fostering, you should look into it at this site: http://adopting.adoption.com/ or visit your state's official website and do a search for adoption or fostering.

Answer 7

Here are several photolistings of children who are waiting to be adopted. The children on such photolistings usually have some special needs, or are older.

Adopting though the US foster system involves little if any fees on part of the adoptive parents since the costs are subsidized by the government. With international adoptions, the fees for adopting "waiting children" are often reduced. Some of the children who are much harder to place will have grant money promised to cover part and in some cases all of their adoption fees.
