Emilee and Kevin’s Readying for Adoption Registry

Hi! People have lots of questions. We have a few kind-of answers! We are in the process of adoption, which will require accepting a child as a foster placement while we move through the process and wait to adopt. Our preferred ages are 0-5; any gender or race.

When: We do not know how long a match will take. When we finish our last home inspection, we can start looking for matches. It can take months or even years.

We hope to be finalized and open for placement this summer.

At this time, we have had to acquire almost all home modifications and safety items required by the state and agency due to the timeline requirements.

We know it is more fun to buy specific items for a child you have in mind, but we truly have no idea the age or gender of the child, and do not want to purchase child-specific items we will not use. We thank you for your support.

What would donations be used for?

There are a substantial amount of fees- several thousand dollars in home study, placement, and adoption fees; home repairs required for home study; as well as costs associated with clothing, feeding, and housing a new child.
