Adoption in Connecticut
Adoption in Connecticut means "the establishment by court order of the legal relationship of parent and child."〔Conn. Gen. Stat. § 45a-707(a)(2007).〕 Adoption is provided for in Title 45a of the Connecticut General Statutes. The provisions of this title, with a few exceptions are to be "liberally construed in the best interests of any child for whom a petition (adoption ) has been filed under said sections."〔Conn. Gen. Stat. § 45a-706.〕 Fundamentally, adoption is a two-step process: (1) an agreement to give and receive the child in adoption and (2) approval of said agreement by the probate court.〔Killen v. Klebanoff, 140 Conn 111, 115 (1953).〕
==Adoption and foster care==
Foster care in Connecticut is the placement of children with families that have been licensed by the Department of Children and Families (DCF) for long-term care.〔Adoption and Foster Care: Statistics and Recent Legislation, OLR Research Report, available at http://www.cga.ct.gov/2006/rpt/2006-R-0684.htm.〕 A "child in foster care", or foster child, means a child residing with an adult who is approved by DCF to stand ''in loco parentis'' for the child and on whose behalf foster care payments are being made by DCF.〔Conn. Regs. §8-210b-9a.〕 There are currently approximately 6,400 children in foster care in Connecticut.〔 These children live in variety of custodial arrangements: foster care, group homes,〔A "group home" is a non-secure home licensed by DCF for children.〕 independent living, medical care,〔"Medical care" refers to those children living in short-term residential programs "cooling off" from a particular crisis.〕 relative care, residential facility, "SAFE" homes〔"SAFE" homes are temporary homes used by DCF to place children traumatized by abuse and neglect. Children may spend up to 45 days there while DCF assesses their needs and searches for appropriate placement.〕 and shelters. Most children in foster care are not available for adoption. At any given time there are between 150 and 170 children, within the foster care system, who are ready for adoption.〔
