adoption fact:

Of the estimated 513,000 children in foster care as of September 30, 2005, 46 percent were in nonrelative foster family homes, 24 percent were in relative foster homes, 18 percent were in group homes or institutions, 4 percent were in pre-adoptive homes, and 7 percent were in other placement types.

Adoption was the goal in 20% of these cases (114,000), and of the adoptions that took place, 60% of the children were adopted by their foster families.

   
You Can Make A Difference
The Heart Gallery of New Mexico helps waiting children in the Children, Youth and Families Department connect with adoptive families by utilizing the donated talents of renowned photographers from throughout the state. The resulting portraits reveal the souls of these beautiful children and aid them in finding forever families through state-wide exhibits.
