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.

Joyce

June 2009
young woman standing and smiling

Joyce is a young lady who is full of energy and commands a room. Joyce is encouraging and likes to make sure that those around her are having as much fun as possible. Joyce is very charming and funny and is able to express her needs to adults and peers.

Joyce enjoys listening to music, spending time talking on the phone, nature, outings, and playing video games. She also enjoys playing the guitar, art activities, and telling funny stories.

The family who accepts Joyce into their home should be patient and consistent. The family should also have the desire to help Joyce meet her true potential. Joyce also needs a family who is willing to maintain contact with extended family members.
