An Illinois Adoption AgencyNational Council for Adoption

Sunny Ridge Family Center is licensed as a child welfare agency by the Illinois Department of Child and Family Services (#019976), and by the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration, Division of Family and Children, as a child placing agency.

 

 
Our Partnership Program for Adoptions
For years Sunny Ridge has networked with a many partner agencies in order to help you find a special child to love. By creating a network of Partnership Programs, Sunny Ridge can better serve children and build families around the world.

A Partnership Program is when two agencies work in a cooperative effort to locate and place children into families. This has been a very popular option with our families and allows you a very wide variety of options regarding programs, fees, requirements and countries, as well as children legally available for adoption. The Partnership Program also allows families to work with placing agencies located out-of-state.

How does it work? Two agencies work together to serve children and build families. Sunny Ridge completes your home study and post placement visits. The placing agency would assist with dossier guidance, referral of a child, and in-country support and assistance. The following are just a few of our partner agencies.
