Abstract

Post-adoption services now loom as a paramount issue in permanency planning. While studies recommend that post-adoption services be integrated into the adoption process, this practice in not uniformly implemented. Minnesota’s Department of Human Services now requires that all non-profit private agencies that hold contracts for delivering adoption services provide post-adoption activities for 18 months after finalization of an adoption. Federal funds (Title IV-B) have earmarked 20% for post-adoption services. How these resources will be made available for the crucial phase of assuring a permanent placement for a child is currently under discussion.
