Summit County Children Services is sponsoring a free Foster Care and Adoption Information Meeting on Wednesday, September 14 at 6 p.m. at the agency, 264 S. Arlington St., Akron.
Summit County Children Services presently has more than 200 children in foster care – including more than 40 children in permanent custody waiting to be adopted – so there is always a need for foster and adoptive parents. Those attending the information meeting will learn a variety of details about foster care and adoption including what and how long the process is, what kind of support is provided by the agency, and the minimal costs involved with adopting a child through a public agency such as SCCS. Agency staff will be available to share basic information about the children coming into care.
This event is open to the entire community and reservations are not needed. For information, call (330) 379-2055.
