There are many things to consider in your decision to pursue the domestic adoption of a child. After reviewing the section on Adoption at Sunny Ridge as well as this section, you should have a basic understanding of many of the issues associated with a journey towards adoption.  

At Sunny Ridge, we recommend that your first step be to attend one of our upcoming free Adoption Information Meetings. Call our adoption services assistant, Marie at (630) 754-4538 (or toll-free at 800 222-9588, to reserve a place at an upcoming meeting. You can also register for the meeting here on-line. You may pick up an application packet at that meeting, or call Marie to request one.
