Growing Family through Adoption & Foster Care, Risk for Abuse
Many children with special needs are waiting for welcoming families and homes. Like all children, they need the nurturing, support and advocacy that a family can provide to help them realize their hopes and dreams.
We have compiled services and resources that may be helpful in building families:
- Adoption: If you’re thinking of adopting a child with special healthcare needs, we can help you get started.
- Foster Care: Learn about the important decisions you will have to make, the processes involved and local and national agencies that can help.
- Child Abuse / Neglect: We recommend resources for family members, caregivers and health professionals who are facing the challenge of child abuse or neglect, which occurs more frequently among children with special needs.
