Why Lutheran Family Adoption Services?
Questionnaires and personal interviews help LFS adoption specialists review a family’s resolution of infertility, education on adoption issues, awareness of parenting issues and commitment to adoption openness. Other considerations include community of residence, other children, willingness to adopt transracially/culturally or children with special needs, and the number of actively waiting families needed in the program.
