MISSION & VISIONS

Adoption Rhode Island’s mission is to create safety, belonging and permanency for adopted and foster children, vulnerable youth, and families through compassionate services, advocacy, and education.

Adoption Rhode Island is an organization that believes that every child deserves a permanent home.

CONSIDERING ADOPTION

Considering adoption but aren’t sure where or how to begin? Adoption Rhode Island will help you through the process!

Although most are school-age children, generally between the ages of 5 and 18,  an increasing number of younger children are coming in to care as well.  These children deeply want a chance for love in a happy, permanent family setting.  We invite married and single adults of any race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation to apply.  Most importantly, we are looking for families that can make a life-long commitment to provide a safe, loving home to a child. There is no cost to adopt any of these children.

WAYS TO HELP

Lives are changed forever when you help to bring a family together with a child to welcome into their hearts and home. Lives are saved when you support programs that keep an adoptive family together. Hope grows every time you help a child or teen in foster care find a place to belong, when you give a teen a view towards a better future, and when you ensure that children reach the milestones of childhood and adulthood with caring adults to love, support and protect them—and celebrate right beside them.
