Our Programs

We believe that all children deserve to be raised in a permanent family

C2Adopt is here to support your lifetime adoption journey. We provide placement, support, and education services to waiting children, potential and existing adoptive families, expecting families and birth parents, and adult adoptees through our Waiting Child and Infant Adoption programs.

Waiting Child Adoption Program

Waiting children need permanent families through reconnection to birth family or fictive kin or through adoption. The majority of children and youth waiting foster care are ages 8 and older. They need what every child needs: to be part of a family, to be treated with kindness and respect, to be nurtured, to have fun, and to have a stable and secure family. Children who leave the foster care system without a permanent family are at an increased risk of dropping out of school, becoming incarcerated, and/or becoming homeless. They often require community mental health and welfare assistance programs. These children deserve so much more from us. C2Adopt offers the training and support families interested in this type of adoption will need to successfully adopt and parent a child who has lived in foster care. Please read about some of Virginia’s Waiting Children on our Waiting Children page.
