30 Single Male Adoption IL

I am a foster parent in IL. You will have to take 27 hours of PRIDE classes. You will need to get fingerprinted and background checked. Those are taking 3-6 months to come back I have heard (it was about 8 weeks when I did it a little over a year ago). The paper work is not too bad-- you will need a doctor to fill out a form. Also, I don't know where you are, but in my area, most do not work directly with DCFS--the private agencies do a lot but they say there is no difference in type or number of cases. I don't know about straight adoption. I would check out the Adoption Information Center of Illinois (site) if you have not already.
