Adoption Agency

Through partnerships with Butte County Department of Social Services (DESS), Butte County Adoptions, State Adoptions and other north state counties, our adoption agency works with parents who want to start or grow their families through the permanency of adoption.

Adoptive parents go through the same approval process as our foster and guardianship families and are required to be licensed under regulations set forth by California Community Care Licensing (CCL) to be an available permanent home for children whose biological parent(s) are unable to provide permanent care. Based on the unique needs of each child, additional supports and services may be available including Therapeutic Behavioral Services (TBS), clinical support, and Wraparound. Adoptive families work with Youth for Change social workers through the entire process until Adoption Finalization day and additional supports are available through post adoptive services.
