Well, I will tell you that healthy infant adoptions are VERY expensive regardless of race. We just adopted a healthy infant boy (1/4 white, 3/4 black) mom never smoked or drank, only asked for $1000 in living expenses - and we spent about 20K dollars - we did pay a facilitator - but most of the money went to the lawyers! Good luck in your quest and I wish you the best. I do suggest that you start your home study as soon as possible, your social worker can help you work through what ever anxieties you have. By the way, we were approved Nov 1 and we took our som home on the 23rd of Jan.
