| Greetings!
Welcome to the 12 families who began their adoption journey and the 1 family who came home with their child in November! It is a wonderful time of year to begin your adoption. Jump ahead of the New Year rush and get your application in today.
This month we are featuring Help Us Adopt. Families without children are given priority and you need an approved home study. The grant program provides up to $15,000. Reminder: the CAS office will be closed December 26, 27, and January 2 for the holidays. For the latest from our Program Coordinators, visit the country updates. Enjoy your holidays and all the news from CAS! |
