Adopting a child can take anywhere from a few months to several years; however, OKDHS cannot guarantee an adoptive placement. Before a child is placed in your home, you must have a home study done and attend adoption workshops. You will adopt more quickly if you choose a waiting child rather than if you want an infant or a “perfect” child.
