I am single and have a physical disability. I hope to someday become an adoptive parent. Does anyone know of an agency (particularly in the southeast) that would be willing to work with me? I probably will not start the actual process of adopting for another 1-2 years, but I'm trying to get a feel for what is available. Ideally, I would like to adopt a girl between the ages of 4 & 6.

The adoptive father is wheelchair bound due to a spinal column injury. Nothing has kept Jim down!
