TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Today, Department of Children and Families (Department) Secretary Shevaun Harris announced the new Adopt Florida website. The dynamic upgrade enhances the adoption journey by streamlining information about the process and providing prospective adoptive parents with every resource available to connect them with a child in need of a forever family.
“The decision to expand your family by opening your home to child in need is one of the greatest acts of love one can offer, and we want to make that decision and process easier for prospective adoptive families to navigate,” said Department Secretary Shevaun Harris. “With the launch of the new Adopt Florida website, our Department is empowering families with valuable resources to help guide them on their adoption journey, including information on pre and post adoption supports. We are thankful for Governor and First Lady DeSantis’ family-focused leadership and look forward to continuing to work with our local partners to best support youth in foster care who become eligible for adoption as well as those families interested in private adoption.”
