Our Mission

The National Center for Adoption Law & Policy seeks to improve the law, policies, and practices associated with child protection and adoption systems. Every day we work towards realizing the goal that all children -- especially those who have been abused or neglected or are dependent on the state for their care -- have safe, healthy, permanent homes. Our primary tools in this regard are education, advocacy, and research.
Our research efforts seek to demonstrate the methods by which foster care and adoption processes can be improved. Center advocacy projects are aimed at bringing about those improvements through changes in the law and the way the law is implemented. Finally, our education programs are designed to assist judges, lawyers, government managers, social workers and other process stakeholders to know about strategies for making child welfare and adoption laws work in ways that will provide kids the stable families they deserve as quickly, efficiently and safely as possible.
