Hi everyone
 I just wanted to start a nevada thread I'm not even sure if anyone else from NV is on this forum, but they should be! If you are there let me know!!! Also interested in ICPC experiences (I have searched and read what is on the forum already)... related to an out of state child coming INTO NV Thanks!

I'm in NV, but I'm afraid I have no info for you.
In fact, I'm planning to move to AZ right around New Years. I just didn't want you to think I was ignoring you.

Hi HopingforAlex,
I'm in Las Vegas. What parts of NV are you in? I've just started the process. What type of child are you hoping to adopt? I'm hoping for boy or sibling boys 4-9 yrs old. DA

Currently we are in Pahrump, moving to Vegas in late December, if we can get our homestudy completed by then. Our case worker said it's easier to finish here (rural region) and then just have cc do a new home inspection than to give a 3/4 finished homestudy over to a new agency
We are hoping for ages 3 to 9. Originally we were doing this for a little girl but she was placed last week. So now we are finishing our homestudy and just waiting to see if we are matched. We would really like to adopt Native American as we both have a great deal of respect and admiration for this culture. I was orphaned when I was five, but the rumor is my biological paternal grandmother was Native American. No proof because there's no dad! So... that's us HA HA

We had friends who moved from Vegas to Pahrump and it was horrible so they got a waiver to take Vegas kids... they are MUCH happier now.
Anyway, I am here, too. We adopted our 5 yo from foster care and his half sibling came to us as a newborn. We also have two foster kids and hope to adopt a girl before we close our home. Great to see other Vegas parents!
