Adoptive Families waiting to welcome a child into their family

Waiting Families

Families who are excited, ready and waiting to welcome the newest member of their family

Families at Boys & Girls Aid come from locations all over Oregon and Washington. We work with families of all shapes, sizes, and family structure.
Our adoptive families are qualified and fully screened. As part of the qualification process, families must go through an “adoption study” or “homestudy”. This includes:

• Background checks (criminal and child protective services)
• DMV checks
• Verification of financial stability
• Health screening
• Safety inspection of the home
• Extensive training
• In-depth evaluation of their life experiences and readiness to be an adoptive parent

Here are some of our families who are waiting to welcome a child into their family. Not all families have chosen to post their information online. Click on one of the photos below to view information about the family. Please contact us for more information about these families or any of our waiting families.
