Have a Heart Washoe works to match children in need with an adoptive family. Adoption gives children the love, care, protection and opportunities that are essential for healthy personal growth and development.
Adoption is a social and legal process establishing the relationship of parent and child between people who don’t have this relationship by birth. Adoption provides the same rights and obligations which exist between children and their biological parents. The primary intention of adoption services is to provide children with permanent families when their birth families cannot care for them.
The main purpose of the adoption program is to find families for children, not children for families. The application and approval process is a family-friendly, child-centered approach that focuses on developing potential adoptive families.
