  • Adoption Process
  • To apply to become an adoptive family you must first attend an orientation, where you will receive applications for Riverside County Adoptions and Community Care Licensing (CCL). To obtain information about Orientation, call 1-800-665-KIDS. After Orientation, you will be required to submit an application to Riverside County Adoptions and to CCL. Adoptive parents are required to be licensed as a Foster Family Home, attend an initial interview, attend 8 weeks of Resource Family Training classes, and submit to the Home Study process in order to become placement ready and be matched with a child(ren). The adoption process is specifically designed to help you discover if adoption is right for your family. Creating a family through adoption is a challenging undertaking. It can also be a satisfying and rewarding experience for your family and for your adopted child. In Riverside County, we have an urgent need for families who want to adopt older children, sibling sets, or children with special medical or developmental needs. Families willing to adopt these types of children will be given priority in completing their Home Studies.
