Details:: Most of our adoptive parents choose to do foster to adopt. In homes that chose to do foster to adopt, we accept only cases which are legal risk (meaning the parental rights are scheduled to be terminated) or the case details indicate a good chance of parental rights being terminated and no relatives have been located. There is a risk involved in this approach but we have had good success with this approach, thus far. Another approach to adoption is straight adopt. This entails submitting for children who are already free for adoption and parental rights have already been terminated. In this approach, the children are never in foster care in the home and have been selected to adopt the children prior to the children arriving to the home. The children must remain in the adoptive home for six months prior to consummation.
