About Florida's Children
On any given day there are approximately 750 children available for adoption from foster care without an identified family.
Florida's children come into foster care through no fault of their own. Some enter care because they were abused, neglected or abandoned or because their parents were unable to care for them due to the parent's drug abuse, imprisonment or other impairment.
In some cases, children enter care because they have medical needs or disabilities their birth parents cannot cope with.
They come from varied backgrounds, circumstances, races and ethnicity. While some have specific medical, physical or emotional issues that require special care, many do not. Their life histories are shared with prospective adoptive parents.
When Florida's children in foster care are available for adoption, the legal rights of their biological parents have been terminated, and the children will never be returned to their birth parents.
