AdoptUSKids is a federally funded project of the Children's Bureau, whose mission is to recruit and connect foster and adoptive families with waiting children throughout the U.S.

Have you ever considered adoption? Watch these videos and hear first-hand from adoptive families eager to share their stories. You'll also find humorous public service announcements produced via a partnership between the Children's Bureau and the Ad Council as part of a national multi-media campaign. These ads are likewise meant to encourage prospective parents to consider adopting from foster care.

To learn more about adoption, and to meet children waiting for a family, visit www.adoptuskids.org. The web site features a national photo listing of children in foster care for a forever family of their own. The site also provides information on foster care and adoption for families, professionals, and the media.

The mission of AdoptUSKids is two-fold: to raise public awareness about the need for foster and adoptive families for children in the public child welfare system; and to assist U.S. States, Territories and Tribes to recruit and retain foster and adoptive families and connect them with children.
