Create your adoption profile

Before you can be added to our pool of Waiting Adoptive Families, you must also complete a personalized adoption profile.

There are two profile options:

Electronic Profile (required)
The focus of this profile is to give a deep dive into who you are, where you live, what your hobbies are, etc. To view sample profiles, please check out our Waiting Adoptive Families page.

Video Profile (encouraged)
The focus of the video profile is to really show your personality through photos and short video snippets. It's a fun way to let your personality shine through. Adding a video profile to your adoption package is also a great outreach tool, providing you and us social media content to help tell your story.

You may opt to use a creative vendor such as Our Chosen Child LLC or create your own profile using tools like Canva or Adobe Creative Suite. You can find good examples both on our website and on other sites such as Pinterest and YouTube.
