adopt while waiting for foster refferal?

Hi,

My husband and I are thinking of being foster parents with the hope to adopt. I have been reading these forums and it seems like the wait for a 3-7 yr old can be long. I was wondering could we go through a private agency get a foster/ adopt home study done and while waiting for a foster child refferal, see if we could put our home study out for possible straight adopt situations? I would hate to waste a year waiting for a foster child, when I see a child that can be adopted on the adopt pa kids website. Does anyone know if this can be done? we live right outside of philadelphia
thanks
Karen
