Adoption Resources

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.
