Prospective and Adoptive Parents

Adopting Children from Foreign Countries

MAFA has a network of local LGBT families and professionals (social workers and attorneys) who have worked together to complete successful adoptions of children from Guatemala, China, Thailand, Cambodia, Russia, and other countries. MAFA offers resource and referral information and conducts workshops about the special needs of adopted children.

Domestic Adoptions

MAFA was founded by a group of social workers who understood the need for good homes for abused and neglected children and the strengths and resources of many gay and lesbian parents who could meet that need. Some MAFA parents have fostered and adopted children in state custody in Missouri, Kansas, and other states. Others have created their families through private adoption.We offer resource and referral information and seminars about adoption and foster care.
