My husband and I have talked about adoption off and on for years, but just very recently decided to start actively pursuing adoption to grow our family. He's active duty Army; currently assigned to Portland ME, state of residence is MA. We know finding the right agency to work with us as a military family could be challenging (especially residing in an area of the country with no major military presence), and we're looking for any advice, encouragement, etc, that you can offer. One newbie question: what adoption laws do we even follow - those for the state where we live or the state where we're residents? If anyone is from the area and can refer us to an agency you had success with locally, or can recommend a national agency please PM me. If you're just starting out and want to chat, that would be great, too! Thanks!
