Adopting a Foster Child is a life-changing act of love. It’s a journey filled with hope, questions, growth, and ultimately, the joy of creating a forever family. While adoption can feel overwhelming at first, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
At Building Arizona Families, we walk beside you every step of the way—offering clarity, confidence, and compassionate support from your very first question to your final adoption celebration.
Learn, Explore, and Ask Questions
Orientation Sessions
Every adoption journey begins with understanding. Our free information sessions are designed to help you explore what foster care adoption truly means. You’ll learn about:
- The needs of children in foster care
- How our team supports you throughout the entire process
There’s no pressure—just honest information, open conversations, and a chance to see if foster care adoption is right for you.
Application & Background Checks
When you feel ready to move forward, you will complete an application and background screenings to ensure that every child is placed in a safe, stable, and nurturing home.
Training & Education
Parenting a child from foster care requires patience, empathy, and understanding. Our comprehensive training equips you with tools to:
- Understand trauma and its impact
- Build resilience and trust
- Create a supportive, loving environment
This education isn’t just about meeting requirements—it’s about helping you feel confident and prepared for the incredible role ahead.
Your Adoption Home Study is more than an evaluation—it’s a conversation. One of our Adoption Home Study Workers will take the time to understand your story, lifestyle, and hopes for adoption.
Matching & Placement
Once your home study is complete, we will begin the matching process. We will work to find a child whose needs align with your family’s strengths and personality. Matching can take weeks or months, but every step brings you closer to the child meant to be yours forever.
Ongoing Support
Adoption Finalization is not the end of your journey. It’s the beginning of forever. Our post-adoption support services are here for you. We offer:
- Adoption Case Management
- Referrals to community resources
- Ongoing encouragement and guidance
