There are all types of children waiting for a permanent family across Connecticut and they need all types of families to claim them as their own.  You can make a positive difference in the life of a child and your family forever by adopting through The Department of Children and Families. 

 

The children for whom adoptive families are sought range in age from birth to 18 years old.  Some of our greatest needs are for families who can adopt children with medically complex needs, sibling groups and older youth.  Please click on the links below to hear families tell their stories of how they came to adopt a child from Connecticut's foster care system.
