It takes about six months to get licensed and certified to foster/adopt. We had kids immediately, but they were emergency receiving and we didn't get to keep them. We got a child six months after we were licensed that we could adopt. Please educate yourself on the issues these kids can have and decide what you can and can't handle. The issue I would now, in hindsight, stay away from would be RAD. Originally we just said no to FAS/FAE, and anything you can't "fix."
