Noted under the Adoption Incentive Payment section of the act, a state can receive as much as $4,000 for adopting out a child. Under another provision technical assistance is offered through grants or contracts to assist states and local communities to reach their targets for increased numbers of adoptions. This financial assistance can be used to expedite termination of parental rights and to encourage the fast tracking of children who have not attained 1 year of age into pre-adoptive placements. Technical assistance is also appropriated to the courts as much as $5,000,000 for each fiscal year.Many agree that the goal of this law is good to move children out of foster homes and into permanent adoptive placements. But the same state government agency entrusted with the job of protecting children ...is also given huge bonuses by the federal government if they push to terminate parental rights and boost their adoption numbers.
