Adopting a Special Needs Child in Texas: Overcoming Challenges with Love
Adopting a Newborn Baby
Adopting a special needs child in Texas can be one of the most rewarding journeys a family can undertake. It also requires thoughtful preparation, emotional strength, and a strong support system.
Colloquially, the term “special needs” typically refers to individuals with intellectual or physical disabilities. In adoption, while the same term can have a similar meaning, it also covers other descriptors. In Texas, a child may be considered to have special needs if they are part of a sibling group or over a certain age. It also includes children who were diagnosed with a physical, mental, or emotional condition that could affect daily life or development.
