Out of State Placement

Interstate Compact (ICPC) monitors adoptions which cross state lines ... your PA homestudy if up to date should suffice. California is supposedly a great state to work with but do not believe they pay for post placement services (i.e. supervision visits/reports for the courts, travel for transition, reimbursement of alot of costs other states do pay) so you may need to verify you understand what the placing state (CA) will and will not be willing to provide. Adoption Assistance is available no matter where you live - again it's just a matter of paperwork completion (oh did I mean to say frustration!).

Hope this helps.
