The traditional adoption process can be notoriously time-consuming and expensive, making it difficult for some to become parents through that path. If you are hoping to adopt, you may have thought about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.childrenfirstffa.com\/foster-to-adoption\/\"><b>foster care adoption in Shasta County<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as one possibility. But is this an option?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>It\u2019s Not the Goal<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it is possible to adopt when you serve as a resource parent, it is important to understand that the goal of the system is reunification first and foremost. <\/span><b>Foster care adoption in Shasta County<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is viewed by the system as a secondary goal, only after all attempts to bring the child back together with his or her family have failed. It\u2019s true that some foster children do wind up being adopted by their resource parents, but that\u2019s not the goal from the start.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Serving for the Right Reasons<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As reunification with a child\u2019s birth family is the goal of the foster care system, it\u2019s important that resource parents get involved with the right motivations in mind. It should not be a case of serving as a resource parent only to work toward an adoption. That might happen, but the primary goal should be to provide children with the care they need during a difficult time in their life. Whether a <\/span><b>foster care adoption in Shasta<\/b> <b>County<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ends up working out, resource parents can still serve an extremely important, life-changing role.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are interested in learning more about 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 | Is It Possible to Adopt Out of Foster Care in Shasta County?
