Adoptable Kids

Adopting a child can be a rewarding and lifechanging experience. The Division of Children and Family Services is looking for families or single adults from all backgrounds who want to give a safe, loving, permanent home to children who need a family.

  • Most children waiting for adoption are African American and Caucasian children ages 10 and older.
  • Many are sibling groups who need to stay together, teenagers, or children who have special needs (including physical, emotional or mental disabilities).
  • Adoptive families can include relatives, single parents, and same sex couples.


Please take a look at our wonderful Adoptable Kids.

  • If you are a licensed Foster Caregiver or approved Adoptive Family requesting information about a specific child submit an inquiry and we’ll follow up with you.
  • If you are not a licensed Foster Caregiver or approved Adoptive Family please submit this interest form and we’ll get back to you.

Chrystina

My name is Chrystina, and I LOVE creative writing! I complete all my writing assignments with high marks, and it is no surprise that my favorite subject in school is English.

The stories I write are happy stories about friendship and the importance of making good friends. I wrote a story where my two main characters, Mr. & Ms. Crayon, ride around on a train with various other crayons. It is super funny. To me writing and reading go hand in hand, so I really enjoy them both.

I love my siblings and since I am the middle child, my name has a “Y” and not an “I”. My sisters like Legos, however; I LOVE Legos and I can play with them for hours and hours. I have several Lego sets and when I play with them, my imagination goes wild. Having pets is fine with me, I can take them or leave them, so it is up to you.

I write stories where I can create my best friend just like in the movie Frozen. Anna and Elsa were extremely close and that’s what I would really love; to have a loving family and friendships that will last me a lifetime.
