The Facts About LGBT Adoption

Many agencies will consider gay adoption, both singles and couples. We believe that every child has the right to a loving, nurturing and permanent family, and that people from a variety of life experiences offer strengths for these children. Therefore, it is the policy of the National Adoption Center that no person should be denied consideration in the adoption process solely based on marital status, sexual orientation, lifestyle, disability, physical appearance, race, gender, age, religion and/or size of family.

The Center is working on a couple of initiates to help those of the LGBT community who wish to adopt and promote LGBT adoption. In the first program to publicly launch, the Center, along with the Delaware Valley Legacy Fund, we advise and support members of the gay community as they consider adoption.
