Adoptive Families Magazine's 2009 Cost & Timing of Adoption Survey
 

1. Welcome!

 
Thank you for being willing to share the details (anonymously) of your adoption experience. Each year, Adoptive Families polls families across the nation to determine the average cost and length of adoption, by type and country. The final information is published the magazine and on the Adoptive Families website (www.adoptivefamilies.com). We've heard from many families just starting out in adoption that the information is immensely helpful to them.

When you've finished the brief poll, you'll have the opportunity to download a special collection of articles from our archives, with our thanks.

You'll also be entered to win one of five Putumayo Picnic Playground CDs, a charming compilation of children's music from around the world. Winners will be chosen at random.

Please note that no personal or individual data will be reported. Adoptive Families never shares any information about its subscribers, e-newsletter recipients, or of those who take our surveys with anyone...ever. (Read our full Privacy Policy.)
