Ten Illinois agencies will present their adoption and foster care programs. Speakers will include representatives from each agency as well as some of the children who are available for adoption. Anyone can adopt from foster care or be a foster parent, as these programs do not discriminate against age, income, marital status, gender or sexual orientation. This event is LGBT friendly.
Adoption from foster care and being a foster parent is free of cost. Whether you have a foster care license or not, this is a great place or start or continue your foster care and adoption journey. You do not need a foster care license to attend this event.
At this event you will see the Illinois Heart Gallery - a photography exhibit of children available for adoption created by professional photographers from Illinois.
This event is open to the public and free of charge. Children and families are welcome. This is a wonderful opportunity to become a parent and champion a child.
