Through the Christian radio station we listen to - KWVE FM 107.9, there are 2 agencies that are Christian based and while I have no personal knowledge of them, it it a good place to start; and thank you for helping those that cannot help themselves :} |

Try contacting your local department of social services or family & child services and look into foster adoption. In California, there are 4,000 kids that "age out" of foster care every year. In the US, there are over 100,000 kids in foster care waiting for permanent homes. Many of these children are already available for adoption (parental rights have been terminated).
The hardest to place are older children & sibling group. Because you & your wife are looking to adopt 4 kids, a sibling group would be ideal - the kids to stay together!

As you can see, there are lots of options. The 1st 3 are through LA County. You can also check with Orange County, San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino, etc., depending on where you live.
Good luck! |
