Adopt Us Kids
AdoptUsKids is a national initiative to partner with States and Tribes to recruit foster and adoptive families for children in foster care. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, there are more than 500,000 children in foster care in the United States. Approximately 114,000 of those children will not be able to return to their parents and are waiting for families to adopt them. We are proud to coordinate the efforts of over 205 adoption service organizations from across the country in this important service of The Children's Bureau."
