Description

Sam is a 12-year-old boy adopted from the USA foster care at age 7. The family has tried for the last five years to help him. His disruptive behaviors have made life difficult for the other children in the family. After careful thought, his parents have made the decision to find him another home where he might succeed in a different environment.

Sam likes to play outside. He enjoys riding his bike and jumping on a trampoline. He loves camping and nature. He enjoys learning about rocks, bugs and animals. He is very good at playing the piano. He likes playing with Legos. He also enjoys art.

This is a private adoption, so a state or foster care home study might not work. A state authorized private domestic or international home study is generally required. You will need a current, updated or new home study for this adoption.

If you haven’t started your home study, please contact us for information on how to begin one. However, if we have home study ready families for this child, we will consider them first. Therefore, if you are willing to take a child between the ages of 9 and 15, we suggest you begin the process as soon as possible.

Due to state laws, we are unable to place this child in CT, MA, NY, FL, DE or WI. If you live in Oregon, you may need to travel to the child’s state to finalize the adoption

If you fit what we are looking for, please write to us and request his full information. KidTeenadopting@wiaa.org
