How
to Make Adoption an Affordable Option
"How to Make Adoption an Affordable
Option" is for people who would like to consider
adoption but are reluctant because they believe that the
process is too expensive. It is also for families who,
caught up in the emotions of adopting, may not have given
serious thought to some of the less obvious financial
aspects of adoption.
National Adoption Foundation
Loan Program
The mission of the National Adoption
Foundation is to encourage pre-adoptive parents and
children to come together, grow, and flourish. The National
Adoption Foundation provides financial support, information,
and services for adoptive and prospective adoptive families
