Illinois Child Adoption Laws

Before starting to search for a child to adopt or an agency to assist you, it is a good idea for you understand how the adoption laws in Illinois may affect your decisions. Making informed decisions is the best way of increasing your chances of adopting a child. Please visit adoption law in Illinois for more details and/or contact an adoption attorney in Illinois.

Are Children Available for Adoption in Illinois?

Yes, through both public and private adoption agencies. In Illinois, and every other state, there are many children in foster care available for adoption and for these children you should contact the Illinois foster care system (On your search engine, type in the words “foster care to adopt in Illinois.).   However, remember that the actual number of children adopted through the Illinois public child welfare agency is only a small portion of the total number of all Illinois adoptions (exact numbers are not available at this time).

Remember that while you may be a resident of Illinois, you are not limited to adopting a child from Illinois. You can adopt a child born in Illinois or a child born in any other U.S. state (contact us).  What is important for you to understand is that infants and children are available for adoption in Illinois and in each of the other the 49 states.
