Adoption.com has its own photo listing of foster adopt children that you can access here.

The waiting children are shown state by state, (and also by country) and you can see if there are children in your state or close by.

You can search by boy or girl, sibling groups or a single child, age, or, if you know the child you are looking for, by ID and name.

There’s a search bar called ‘recently added’ children so you can look at the new children who’ve become available.

Once you’ve found a child you are interested in, be sure to write down the ID number and then call your local DHS office with as much information as possible about the child. Some of the listing have a specific number to call or a way to contact the agency who has the child listed.

You must have a home study already approved before following up on children, so if you are serious about adopting, start that process now.

If you are going through the fost-adopt route for your adoption, the home study should be at no cost to you, or almost no cost, (under $100.00)

Most of the children featured are considered special needs – they may be older or part of a sibling group, so a subsidy may be available for the adoption and continuing after adoption.

As part of your home study you must show you are financially able to care for children, so a financial subsidy will not be taken into account as part of your qualifying process.
