Learn about the costs of adoption from foster care through Adoptions Together, a program of Paths for Families.
Children are in foster care because they were removed from their biological family due to abuse, neglect, and/or parental substance use or mental illness. If these issues are not remedied with their biological parents, parental rights are terminated and children are considered available for adoption. These children are typically 8 years and older.
Parents must attend 30 hours of training, complete a home study, work with a foster care adoption team member to locate a child, be placed, and proceed toward finalization. You can begin the process of finalizing your child’s adoption after the child has been in your home for a minimum of six months. The process takes at least one year or more.
Adoptions Together, a program of Paths for Families, works with families to successfully complete training, a home study, and adoption. We work with parents of all races, genders, sexualities, marital status. We also provide counseling to support you through the process. To begin the process, we encourage you to attend one of our scheduled information meetings and contact us for an inquiry.
We host a photo gallery which provides a brief biography and pictures (when available) of local children and teens available for adoption. Inquires are welcomed; we provide home study services and updates when needed.
