Information about Domestic Adoption and Advocacy for children with Down syndrome
Although Reece's Rainbow is strictly focused on the international adoption of children with Down syndrome and other special needs, there are resources available for families seeking to adopt DOMESTICALLY and also for US birth families who are seeking an adoptive family for their new baby with Down syndrome.
The Coordinator for private, US adoptions of children with Down syndrome is Robin Steele. She is affiliated with the Down Syndrome Association of Greater Cincinnati, and can assist both birth families and adoptive families in the placement of a new baby with Down syndrome.
There are also several other agencies you can contact, such as www.CHASK.org and www.adoptuskids.org to seek and/or place a child with Down syndrome for adoption.
We are grateful to those birth families who have chosen adoption, and given their child a chance to reach their full potential in a loving, adoptive family.
