The adoption home study report requires the prospective adoptive family to gather different documents, answer several questions, and explore their reasons for adopting. These all become a part of the decision making process for both the prospective family and the workers involved albeit attorneys, agencies or the courts. Not only can the report help the worker place a child into your home who would best fit into your family, but help the family and the worker decide if now is a good time for your family to adopt. Adoption home study fees are based in part on the location of your residence.
Our professionals will help you know what to prepare for your home study. Questions are about your family, immediate and extended; how you approach discipline, your childhood memories and background. Be prepared to describe your environment. What is your school system like? Which schools will your child/ren attend? What is your relationship with your neighbors? What resources does your community offer to help you parent an adopted or special needs child? Documentation of all of these characteristics is a necessary part of your home study. You can see a sample home study here.
Answers to your questions will be a part of the process and there are many questions that arise in the adoption process. An adoption home study can create nervousness, but if you go in prepared and know what to expect you will get through it just fine! As always, our best wishes to you on your adoption journey.
