Siblings seek home together
Lorraine and Paul are African-American siblings who hope to be adopted together by a warm and welcoming family.
Lorraine is a 10-year-old girl who does well in school.
She has made several close friends in class and easily communicates with her peers.
One of her favorite activities is reading.
She especially loves “Harry Potter.” When Lorraine grows up, she wants to be an exotic veterinarian so she can care for a large array of animals in need.
Paul is a sweet, engaging 8-yearold boy. He is talkative and loves to learn new information. He enjoys building with Legos and creating large structures. He also enjoys playing video games at home.
Legally freed for adoption, these siblings don’t have a preference for a particular family constellation. Both would benefit from a family that could supply a consistent, structured environment. Stability and routine would be key in continuing their positive development.
Who can adopt?
Can you provide the guidance, love and stability that a child needs? If you’re at least 18 years old, have a stable source of income and room in your heart, you may be a perfect match to adopt a waiting child. Adoptive parents can be single, married or partnered; experienced or not; renters or homeowners; LGBTQ singles and couples.
The process to adopt a child from foster care requires training, interviews and home visits to determine if adoption is right for you, and if so, to help connect you with a child or siblings who will be a good match for your family.
To learn more about adoption from foster care, call the Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange at 617-542-3678 or go to mareinc.org.
The sooner you call, the sooner a waiting child will have “a permanent place to call home.”
