Hello!
Thanks for the response. I am only in the beginning stages, for the second time around. The first time, four years ago, a private agency did my HS, this time, I am going through DYFS. We never received placement the first time.
I know there are many parents in this forum with older child adoptions but I guess I'm just wondering about folks in NJ specifically.
I'm very anxious right now and the process is just so slow.
I don't need an immediate placement, as I know how important it is for the best match for us, but the HS process itself has proven to be panifully slow. I am eager to begin making contacts through photolistings, introducing myself to social workers, etc.
I'm even more anxious because of less-than-pleasant experiences with DYFS and this process in the past! You'd think they would value families like us more.
We're looking for a boy, 7-12 years-old, any race.
I can't wait to find him!
Thanks.
J
