Dawn:
I will say that just today (10June03).....I found out that there are more agencies that 'don't want to take on adoptive parents...they just want foster parents'. This was news to me (I found out because my sister is in this situation.) I've also heard that Illinois has a different view on adoption now. I've been told that the goal is to keep the kids in the foster care....not consider adoption as much!!!!! Hmmmmm.......
Glad to hear that you found an agency to help you out!!!! I live in a rural area of Illinois, and agencies are few here. We are licensed with an agency several hours away.
We went the older child adoption route three times. We came back to private adoption.
Good luck with your adoptions!
Sincerely,
Linny
