Welcome to the Adoptation web site! If you are interested in learning about waiting children who need adoptive families, you are at the right place!
Adoptation is a community collaborative among nine greater Houston area agencies including:
Catholic Charities
DePelchin Children's Center
Homes4Good
Homes of St. Mark
Houston Achievement Place
Lutheran Social Services of the South
Spaulding for Children
Texas Department of Family & Protective Services
The Arrow Project, Inc.
Adoptation is a supporting organization of the Greater Houston Community Foundation. Its other community partners include Houston's WB, A Brink & Co., Brivic Media, and Easterly & Co. Since January 2000, over 3,300 children have become members of permanent adoptive families.
There are a lot of misconceptions about adoption - myths about who makes a good parent, myths about successfully adopting waiting children, and myths about who really needs a home and can love you with all their heart.
