“By relying on private donations and grants for funding, we’ve been able to open doors to hundreds more families to adopt, thereby providing permanent homes for children who may have otherwise lingered in foster care,” said Chris Foster, director of Antioch Adoptions.

According to Antioch Adoptions, with private agency fees often exceeding $20,000 per adopted child in Washington, many potential adoptive families are “priced out” of the option.
