Can I adopt?

If you are at least 18 years old, have a stable income and space in your heart, you may be the perfect choice for adopting a waiting child.

Adoptive parents can be single, married or in a relationship; experienced or not; renters or homeowners; LGBTQ+ singles and couples. As an adoptive parent, you don't have to pay any fees; adoption from foster care is completely free in Massachusetts.

The process of adopting a child from foster care includes training, interviews, and home visits to determine if adoption is right for you. These steps will help you find a child or sibling group that is a good fit for your family.
