When you choose adoption, you can decide how involved you want to be in selecting your child’s adoptive family.

Adoptions of Wisconsin has pictures and stories of our waiting families that tell you about who they are and what makes them unique. Brief descriptions of some of our families are available under Waiting Families. The full profiles tell you about their relationships, families, childhoods, homes, careers, hobbies and what they hope to offer their adopted child. You can choose the family you want for your child. You can choose to meet with the family if you like.

If you would rather not be involved in choosing a family, Adoptions of Wisconsin can match your child with an approved family.

All of our waiting families have been studied to determine what type of home they are able to provide a child. They all meet state legal requirements for adoptive parents, as well as agency requirements. They are families who are ready to give a child a loving home.
