What are the different types of adoption?

Parents who wish to adopt a child have many different adoption options. The different types of adoption include:

• Adopting directly from the child’s biological parents with the help of an agency
• International adoption
• Adoption from the state foster care system
• Adoption within a family

There are advantages and drawbacks to each type of adoption, and parents should explore all options before making a final decision.
