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.

La’Jara

face of a young woman

Hello, my name is La’Jara and I am super excited to be in high school because I can finally pursue my passion, ACTING! One of my lifetime desires is to become a Broadway or television/movie actor. I will be signing up for every elective that involves drama and might even join the drama club. I am eager to learn the fundamentals of acting and look forward to meeting new and creative people. But don’t worry, I still get good grades in my other subjects in school.

I will need continued contact with my four sisters.
