Minnesota has numerous children, including biracial baby girls, in need of a forever family.
Across the country, there are thousands of children in need of a forever family. Minnesota has an estimated 400 in the state's foster care system awaiting adoption. If you are searching for a biracial baby girl to join your family, there are several resources available in Minnesota to assist you in the adoption process.
Instructions
1. Attend adoption training. Minnesota encourages those wishing to adopt to attend training classes. Each county in Minnesota has a human resources office (Resources) that handles state adoptions. Check the directory, contact your local office and obtain the date for the next pre-adoption training class series.
2. Contact MN Adopt. Minnesota has a state program known as MN Adopt with an estimated 400 children in foster care awaiting adoption. Go to the MN Adopt website (mnadopt.org) to search the database for biracial baby girls available for adoption. Once you find a child you are interested in adopting, speak with your county adoption office to proceed with the adoption process.
3. Contact a private agency. If you do not wish to go through a county adoption service, contact a private adoption agency. You may put your profile on an agency's website for expectant mothers to review when choosing a family for the baby on the way. In addition, the agency may have children still awaiting homes and can match you with a biracial baby girl.
4. Prepare for a home study. Your home will be inspected prior to adoption in Minnesota. Have your home clean, in compliance with building codes and safe for a new baby.
5. Have finances in order. Your ability to take care of a baby will also be considered. Be prepared to disclose your finances. You must also be prepared to pay fees for a private adoption. These vary, depending on the agency. Compare rates and ask before signing about any hidden fees. Minnesota requires adoptive parents pay legal fees and counseling costs for birth mothers. You may also be required to pay for an expectant mother's medical care not covered by insurance. State adoption through your county agency will be less costly.
