Question about the homestudy?
My husband and I have already did all of our classes for foster parenting and adoption. We just got everything filled out for our homestudy and will be mailing it in this week. Our county hires Cathlic Charities to do the homestudy part. So our homestudy will be fostering and adopting. Can we use our homestudy to do a private adoption also? Or will we have to get another homestudy. We live in Indiana.

You will more than likely need to get a seperate homestudy. Since this one will be specific to your fostering/adoption then they will more than likely be unwilling to accept this for a private adoption. You may use it for adoptions from the State.
Catholic Charities may also do the homestudies for private adoption as well, you may want to check with them.

I am guessing you need a separate one too. We were with a private infant adoption agency first. After 2 years of waiting we decided to switch to fost/adopt. We had to do a whole new homestudy. We had to fill out some of the exact same forms a second time. good luck
