Adoption

Adoption is a legal way of providing a new permanent family for children who cannot live with their birth family. An adoption order gives adoptive parent(s) parental rights and responsibilities and removes parental responsibility from the birth parent(s).

We are a registered charity with many years of experience of finding homes for vulnerable children. Adoption can be very rewarding for families who are keen to become parents. Our aim is to offer you a service that helps you consider adoption as a positive way of parenting. TACT can offer ongoing training, counselling, meeting groups, regular communications, regular activity events, mediation services, support to prevent the disruption of an adoption, therapeutic services, respite care and financial support.

Please note that, at present, TACT welcomes enquiries from the Greater London area and is also keen to hear from those outside London who would like to talk about adopting a child with profound needs.

We're running information evenings throughout the year, so why not have a look and give us a call to book your place.
