| Spaulding
for Children is a unique agency. We are dedicated to building and
sustaining strong, nurturing families for children who have endured
abuse, neglect or abandonment. We do this by placing abused and
neglected children with permanent adoptive families and providing
ongoing support after placement. We place children with physical,
mental or emotional disabilities, older children, minority children
and sibling groups. And, we charge no fees to our families.

From the initial application to after-placement
support, Spaulding for Children works very closely with the adoptive
family to determine the needs of the child and the family's ability
to meet those needs. We share videos, pictures and histories of the
child and provide adoption preparation classes
as well as opportunities to network with other adoptive families and
support groups.
If
you think adoption through Spaulding for Children may be right for
you and you live in the Houston area, complete our questionnaire

families in the following counties: Austin, Brazoria, Chambers, Colorado,
Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Liberty, Matagorda, Montgomery, Walker,
