We
provide this resource page as a service to those families who
may be considering adoption as an option. |

| According
to the National Council for Adoption, babies, regardless of medical
problems, who are "free for adoption," generally don't wait long
for families. There are waiting lists of families wishing to
adopt infants with Down syndrome.
