Nursing families urgently wanted: This is how you can help!
in the district of Borken, as well as in the cities of Ahaus, Borken and Gronau are currently being actively advertised for the admission of foster children. This is done in the context of a declining number of adoptions. According to a report by Presse-service , only seven adoptions were handled in the adoption agency in 2024, which represents a decline in eight cases compared to the previous year.
The admission of foster children is an alternative to adoption. There are currently four applications from couples who are interested in adoption. However, the statistics show that the number of applicants is significantly behind the number of children released for adoption. A central problem is that only a few parents are willing to release your child for adoption if you are unable to take care of it yourself.

couples and families who think about taking up a care or adoptive child should deal extensively with the associated requirements and requirements. You will receive support from specialists from the adoption agency and the foster child services. These specialists offer training courses for the integration of nursing or adoptive children into the family and inform about the specific needs of these children.
The task of the foster parents is described as a major challenge, but can also enrich everyday life. Foster parents play an important role in helping children, developing trust in themselves and their environment and taking healthy development steps. For more information on adoption, interested parties contact the "joint adoption placement agency of the cities of Ahaus, Borken, Gronau and the Borken district".
like company ABC reports, children who are housed in foster families do not automatically pursue the goal of being adopted. For adoption, the consent of the biological parents and the child's consent is required if it is under 14 years. As a rule, foster parents are not legal parents of the foster child. The biological parents retain their parental rights and duties during care time.
The adoption is a complex process that includes advice from the adoption agency and a thorough examination of the requirements. The adoption process can take up to two years, with an integrative approach for the foster child in the future adoption family.
