Adoption Grants

Hi Everyone,

I'm just starting to look into adoption grants. Have any of you used them? If so, could you PM me with the name of the grant you used & any information you might have about adoption grants? Like I said, I'm brand new at this & just looking for some information.

Thanks so much!

If you go to Shaohannah's Hope website, they not only have their own grant, but also have quite an exhaustive list of like every grant out there. Just keep clicking on resources- you will find a very long list. It's called "The Burke family's list of adoption fund resources". FYI- most grants won't "grant" until you have a completed homestudy. They want to make sure you are really doing it. Good luck! Also, ask your agency about any recommended grants. Our SW has been great with this, too.

Thanks so much for your responses. Shaohannah's Hope is actually one I just found today, so it's great to see that others have had a good experience with them. Thanks again to both of you & Congratulations on your grant, Teresa!
