I just wanted to respond about the grants. I researched all the grants for adoption I could find. I'm a teacher and have a lot of experience in grant-writing. I even applied for a grant for a free IVF cycle and got it. But with the adoption grants, we had to pay an application fee ($25 each) and I never heard from them. NEVER! Not even an "I'm sorry" letter or email. I called to follow up and they just blew me off. I think it's a terrible thing to do to couples who, at this point, have probably broken their piggy banks with IF treatments and are now having to come up with big $ for adoption costs. I hope that someone else has had a better experience with adoption grants and can share a happier ending for you.
Good luck,
Mandi
