The system wants to bring children back together with their biological families, when at all possible. That is not always going to be possible, however, so <\/span><b>foster care adoption in Shasta County<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> becomes a secondary goal in many cases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Every Case is Different<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As far as the timeline for <\/span><b>foster care adoption in Shasta County<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it\u2019s important to understand that every case is different. A range of 12 to 18 months can be used as a general guideline, but there is no way to know exactly how a particular case will progress. A variety of factors have to come together for a successful adoption to be completed, and there are legal requirements that must be met. Of course, even if a relatively lengthy timeline is required to complete a <\/span><b>foster care adoption in Shasta County<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it will be well worth the wait when the papers are signed, and the adoption is official.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>A Life Long Commitment<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As mentioned above, the primary goal of foster care is to reunite a child with his or her biological family. With that said, an adoption is still a desirable outcome, as the child will be welcomed into a loving home on a permanent basis. All children should be supported and loved, and being adopted out of the foster system is a great way to make that happen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are interested in learning more about becoming a foster parent or foster to adopt, contact <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.childrenfirstffa.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Children First Foster Family Agency<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.childrenfirstffa.com\/apply-here\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">apply to become a resource parent<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.childrenfirstffa.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Children First FFA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a private, non-profit organization in Northern California that is dedicated to helping change lives by providing a safe place for children to heal in a culture of love, acceptance, and consistency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Foster Care Adoption Shasta County | How Long Does It Take to Adopt a Child from Foster Care?
