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.

My name is Craig, and I am enjoying my first year in high school. I do very well with my course work and I’m eager to learn. I enjoy being outside, but I am just as happy drawing, coloring, and playing with my hot wheels and action figures inside. When I’m not drawing or playing, I like to watch tv shows and movies like The Power Rangers and Transformers.

I enjoy helping others and being a part of a team. I help with grocery shopping and cooking. I also help other kids around me handle tough situations. I do have a positive relationship with my biological mother and brothers which I need to be able to continue. I have good sense of humor and I love to laugh. I’m looking for a loving patient family.
