This information was taken directly from Child Welfare Information Gateway

Complaints

Both Types of Adoption

All accredited and approved providers are required to have a policy for handling complaints. If the person complaining is not satisfied with the provider’s response, there is a web-based complaint registry: http://adoptionusca.state.gov/HCRWeb/WelcomeForm.aspx.

Complaints made through the registry are passed on to the accrediting entity for investigation.

Parents also may complain to their State’s adoption agency licensing authority (see the National Foster Care and Adoption Directory Search at https://www.childwelfare.gov/nfcad for a list) or the Better Business Bureau.
