Description
Meet Luca!
*Luca is 11 years old and was adopted internationally when he was 5 years old. He was sandwiched between several other children his same age and did not get the individual attention he needed from the very beginning in order to form a strong attachment. He spent the first 5 years of life in an orphanage setting without anyone to give him the attention every baby/toddler deserves and needs for emotional and psychological development. He deserves a family where he can fill up that empty part. Luca’s behavior outside of the family home is so much better, so we feel he is a great candidate for a new adoption.
We are partnering with them to find a new adoptive family with a current home study (or one that can be easily updated), and no other children in the home between ages 7-13. We will consider families who do not meet the requirements regarding existing children, if you have prior experience with older child adoption. If you fit these requirements and are interested in adopting Luca, please write us at secondchanceinfo@wiaa.org and ask for his full profile. We would love to send you info on how to be approved for a Second Chance adoption.
Luca is friendly, social and outgoing. He enjoys traveling around the USA and camping with the family in their RV, amusement parks (especially roller coasters!) and helping his mom cook and clean. He likes to set the kitchen table for dinner and fold the napkins into interesting shapes. One of his jobs is to wipe the table after meals and he is always willing to do so without being asked. His favorite color is royal blue. He enjoys drawing, coloring, painting, Lego, card games, and looking at books. He loves all kinds of books and magazines and will spend hours looking at them. He likes to make up songs on the family piano. He loves music and has great rhythm. He likes to dance. His favorite food is any kind of soup, and he also likes to eat things like BBQ, eggs, vegetables, rice, noodles, hot tea, sweet tea, grits with soy sauce, Chick-fil-A, and spaghetti with marinara and meatballs. His family says he is clean and orderly—he makes his bed every day, keeps his dresser neat and prefers orderliness to messiness. He does his own laundry from start to finish, once a week. He likes to ride his bike and play outside. The family has dogs and cats. He loves them and they love him back!

This is a private adoption, so a state or foster home study might not work. A state authorized private domestic or international home study is generally required. You will need to have a current, or easily-updated home study for this adoption.
Due to state laws, we are not able to place this child in CT, MA, NY or DE. If you live in OR, you may need to travel to the child’s state to finalize this adoption. If you have never had a home study before, we cannot help you adopt this child. But we would love to share with you the process of starting a home study so you could be approved for a child in the near future. Please write to us and ask us how to get started!
Adoption is a legal process so there will be costs associated. This adoption qualifies for the IRS Adoption Tax Credits.

If you fit the POSTED REQUIREMENTS, are home study ready (or can be soon!), and interested in adding this child to your family, please write to us for an honest, in-depth profile on the child including medical, educational, and behavioral information and learn the full story of why this child needs a secondary adoption. Our program social worker and program director have worked together with the child’s family to carefully set the requirements for the new family. These requirements are not negotiable, so please honor the needs of this child by not asking us to bend them for you.
