Narrative
Our Adoption Program works to help large sibling groups and medically complex children find their forever family. We provide adoption services for children aged nine months to eighteen. Most of the children in our program are school aged (5-18). The program looks at the children's needs. We identify the type of family best suited to meet their needs.
Provides services for children who have been in the custody of the Department of Children & Families (DCF) who have the goal of adoption. These children are often older. They may be members of a sibling group or of a particular ethnic group. They may have special needs to include physical, emotional and/or medical difficulties.
