Procedures Following Adoptive Placement

A period of support and supervision lasting at least six (6) months must be completed following the adoptive placement prior to the finalization of the adoption. In situations where a foster family has a significant relationship with a child and the child has been placed in their home for at least the last six (6) months, the supervisory period may be reduced to a minimum of three (3) months. Scheduled visits to the home will be made at least monthly during this period to assist the child and the family in their adjustment.
