View Adoption Case Details

When the agency is given permanent custody of a child, the process begins for finding an adoptive home for that child. An adoption case is created to record the details. If you have the appropriate access rights, you can view details of the child's original case as well as the adoption case. (See About adoption cases for more information.)
