Family Focus Adoption Services
| Agency | Family Focus Adoption Services |

| Agency Description | This nineteen year old multi-service agency was started by adoptive parents and social workers and does all types of adoption work throughout the lower half of New York State and parts of New Jersey - including counseling pregnant women and placing their babies if that is their decision, training other agencies, and helping families adopting internationally with local paperwork and reports. The heart of the agency, however, and its mission, is to find and prepare families to adopt the oldest and toughest youngsters, the teens and preteens who sit in the foster care systems of New York State, still desperately waiting for a family of their own. The agency is known for an extremely successful method that it has developed to help youngsters during the visiting process. Called "Empowered Transition," this process gives the youngster as much choice in visiting as the adults. Child and adult have their own transition workers, and each has as much time as needed to decide about becoming a permanent family. FAMILY FOCUS is nationally known for its work, and well respected for its written studies and reports. Agency staff also present at local, regional, and national conferences, and have done research on the success of New York State photolisting. |
