National Adoption Month helps to raise awareness of the needs of children waiting to be adopted, and to recognize those who have adopted or were adopted. A celebration of adoption! On average, adoptive parents are usually couples in their 30s to mid 40s, and single adoptive parents are often women in their 40s. On average, wait times can last anywhere from a few months to a couple of years. International adoptions usually take the longest.
