The primary constraints of this program are the few infants available for adoption. The Infant Program also encompasses Search and Private Placement Homestudies. Both services are available for a client fee. The children are of all ages and may have a history of physical or sexual abuse or neglect. They may have medical or educational limitations or emotional problems.
Applicants are responsible only for legal fees to finalize the adoption.
The children may be from anywhere in Pennsylvania and the adoptive families may be from Erie County or any surrounding county. We provide services to assess the child's needs, compile social history information, and prepare them for placement and adoption. Adoptive families may be couples or single individuals who will be assessed for adoption of special needs children. The geographical area to be served encompasses Erie, Crawford, Warren, and Venango Counties. The only fees involved are minimal legal fees.
