Looking for a date?  lol\nI'm just messing with you.  Call child services and they can help you.  You might want to foster a teenager instead of adopt.

Look into adoption, there are so many children in state care that have no one. Go to your local Social Services and check into this, best of luck.

I would check with Family Services in your city.  They can ususally steer you in the right direction.

Contact a local adoption agency in your area could cost at least 10,000. Or look into becoming a foster parent. You can ask for only placements that will heve the opportunity to adopt its free that way.

It depends on how much information you have about your birth mother.  One good place to start the seach would be with the adoption agency that handled the adoption procedure.  Also, there are registries on the internet where people can post "seeking" ads for adoptive parents, so that if she is also looking for you, there may be a match.

You can adopt through your state welfare system and I don't think it will cost you anything (I may be wrong on that). If you call your state's child welfare system, they can tell you. Also a lot of states offer subsidies for families wanting to adopt special-needs children or kids who are wards of the state.

Depending on where you live, you could contact the Salvation Army (no, I'm not trying to push religion on you).  They have outreach programs that assist families.  Also, if you're in an area that has adopted 2-1-1, they can provide guidance on places that provide assistance.\n\nWish you the best of luck.  I know how it is, I'm helping a friend that is going thru a tough time.

I think this is an awesome website. You can adopt a soldier and send him cards and care packages. They will love every letter, they can get. Check the website out.

Adopt children from elsewhere. There is plenty of misery to choose from. Children desperate for a home and a chance. Do some research and I am sure you can come up with a huge (sad isn't it) list of locations where children are suffering.\n\nWhat you want to do is very noble. If only there were more willing to take on this task.

You could start with this website:\nhttp://www.theadoptionguide.com/\n\nIt gives you an overview of how to start the research process of adoption agencies in your state. It also lists "featured agencies" which presumably the site endorses.\n\nGood luck!

have  you tried going through the adoption disclosure agency and registering with them.    I'm not sure where you live, but i contacted the one in toronto, On, and they found my birth mother but she didn't want to see me and i haven't seen her in 45 years.  My e-mail address is devon_46@hotmail.com if you need more information about the agency and live in or near the toronto area
