Domestic Adoption Program

Barker’s Domestic Adoption Program finds families for infants of all racial and ethnic groups who are born in the U.S. We work primarily with families residing in Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. Our program includes:

	Comprehensives Services
	Individual services for home study and post-placement
	Adoption of African American and Multiracial Children
	Assistance in the Adoption of Special Needs Children
	NEW! Project Wait No Longer: Permanency for Foster Youth

General applicant guidelines for all Barker Foundation placement programs, include:

	Applicants are in good physical and mental health.
	Applicants are not actively involved in infertility treatment at the time they make application to adopt.
	A parent will stay home with the child full time for a minimum of six weeks following placement.

For specific requirements and procedures, please refer to the Domestic Adoption FAQ and Program Overview.

"When we think of our children's birth parents, we feel so blessed and grateful. It is reassuring to be able to send letters and pictures to them through Barker."
