My husband & I are thinking about adoption after 8 long years on infertility treatments.
I am unsure where to start or which agency is the best.
Any advise??

Thanks

We are in the middle of the Aurora area and the Rockford area. I know a little about the agencies in between. I like the idea of a private agency and foster/adopt. There are some negatives of kids being legally available, and tpr. Some counties tend to wait years and the kids hang in the balance. The positives are huge. Let me know if you'd like more info on the agencies we looked at and the research we did before hand.

Please let me know if you'd like to get more info! I'd love to share.
