There is a new law which hopes to improve the adoption process in South Carolina. The improvements will come in two ways: (1) Time limits will be in place that will allow foster families to adopt children more quickly and, (2) It will put less emphasis on keeping birth families together, in cases where the parents are substance abusers or mentally ill. (Full details here)
Do you think these actions will result in more adoptions of children in the foster care system? What other measures can we take?

President-Elect Obama
We are heartened by the results of the election yesterday. Regardless of your political affiliation, it was wonderful to see so many take part in the process. We look forward to uniting as a nation through the leadership of President-elect Barack Obama and his Vice-President-elect, Joe Biden. While there are many issues in need of attention, we will work to keep spotlighted those issues which touch the lives of children within the foster care system and those who receive the permanacy of adoption.
