Does Full Circle Support Transracial and Transcultural Adoption? Special Needs Adoption?
Full Circle is comfortable with and experienced in helping families achieve a transracial/transcultural adoption as well as in helping families open to adopting a child who may have or who may develop special needs (including assistance with applying for a special needs (or potential special needs) subsidy. Full Circle understands that there is a wide diversity of professional and popular opinion with regard to the advisability of placing African American children with Caucasian parents. We understand and empathize with those who feel that African American parents can best raise African American children to understand African American heritage, culture and how to respond to racism in our society. However, there seem to be fewer African American adoptive parents seeking to adopt than there are African-American children needing loving homes.
