Can I call your house my home?
Thousands of children in America are waiting for an answer to this question.
These children in permanent state custody are waiting to find a stable,
loving family. It's something most of them have never experienced because
they were abused, neglected or abandoned. They need a safe and nurturing
place they can call home. Through adoption, these children become part
of a new family.
Special Needs
Special Challenges
Special Rewards
Many people think of unwed mothers and newborn infants when they think
of adoption. Most of the children who wait for families, however, are
special needs children. Special needs means children
who wait longer for families because they are school-aged, because they
are brothers and sisters who need a home together, because they belong
to a racial minority, or because they have special physical, mental or
behavioral needs. Yes, these children may present greater parenting challenges,
but the rewards of helping these children achieve their potential are
enormous!

All God's Children
a special needs adoption
agency
All Gods Children was incorporated in 1997 in an effort to provide
more adoption opportunities for the children who wait. Our focus is on
the children who wait longest for families. We are committed to increasing
awareness in Georgia about the need for adoptive families. We provide
an intensive process of preparing families to adopt older children, help
match families with waiting children, and provide close support to families
after a child is placed in the home. All God's Children, Inc. works in
partnership with the Georgia Department of Human Resources to find families
for Georgias waiting children. All Gods Children also assists
in the placement of waiting children in state custody elsewhere in the
United States.
