**Disclaimer**
Families must have an approved Family Profile (home study) to adopt a
child. Only those families with approved profiles will be considered by the child's
caseworker in
the county
children and youth agency with custody of the child.
The information is given by PAE based solely on the statement of the family that they are
approved
to adopt.
Families in Pennsylvania without an approved Family Profile are directed to contact
1-800-585-SWAN
to pursue
an agency in their geographic area. Families living outside of Pennsylvania are encouraged
to work
with an
agency in their state to prepare the profile.
