Foster Care Adoption in Minnesota

If you’d rather adopt an older child or feel called to adopt a sibling group, you may want to consider foster care and foster care adoption.

Although foster care adoption is a wonderful way to grow your family, it’s different from domestic infant adoption.

When you choose foster care, you should be prepared to:

• Work with the state, not an adoption agency like American Adoptions
• Understand that reunifying the foster child with their biological family is the hopeful outcome for all foster care experiences

If reunification can’t happen, you may have the opportunity to adopt your foster child.

The following are just a few professionals who can help you if you choose to foster a child in Minnesota:

• Minnesota Department of Human Services Foster Care Division
• MN ADOPT adoption photolisting
• Children’s Home Society of Minnesota adoption photolisting
• Find your nearest Minnesota foster care agency here
