Hello,
My name is Carolyn, I am in Saskatoon, Canada.
My hubbie and I are hoping to adopt an older child within the next year or so.
Anyone on this board adopted an older child in SK? Anyone able to give pointers, etc?

Hi Carolyn! I am from Alberta and have adopted two children through a private agency here. I don't think I'll be much help to you but wanted to say 'hi' and welcome!!!
Have you contacted [URL="http://www.dcre.gov.sk.ca/regional/offices.html"]SK Community Resources[/URL]? I don't know how much research you have done but I know from my research (we considered a move to Saskatoon during the wait for our second child) that there are no longer any private agencies there. I do believe you will have a better chance because you are interested in an older child placement. This would be my starting point if you haven't looked here already.
Best of luck and keep us posted okay?

HI!!
I'm also an Albertan who adopted an infant through an agency (same agency as Tammy, actually!!)
BUt I grew up in Prince Albert!! I actually spent 2 summers figure skating in Saskatoon.
SO, i wanted to say hi and wish you luck!! It's always nice to see another Canadian on the boards!!
Contact the Adoption Support Centre of Saskatchewan; it is in Saskatoon. They will be able to direct you to the right place and give you answers. Their number is 306-665-7272. They are not a private agency, they are sort of like an information center for adoption in the province.
