Meet our Kids
Each one of our children waiting for adoption is unique. We have Children of all ages and stages of development that are waiting to be adopted, but the majority are aged one and older. These children come from a variety of cultural groups ranging from Bands all across Canada and some children having birth parents from a multitude of cultures such as African-Canadian, Caribbean, Caucasian and others.
Some are brothers and sisters, waiting for a family who can adopt them together. Most of the older children waiting to be adopted have had painful experiences and need time to adjust to a new home. Others may have developmental or physical challenges. Each child is different, but all can benefit from becoming part of a warm and loving family.
In planning for the adoption of a child, NCFST selects adoptive parents that are capable of meeting the needs of the child.
The agency is committed to the ongoing local and provincial recruitment of prospective adoptive families who are able to meet the special needs of children available for adoption.

We may consider some of the following when choosing an adoptive home:
- Parent's strengths and abilities
- Experience with children and dealing with difficult situations
- Extended family support
- Parent's ability and willingness to cope with child's needs now and in the future
- Experience with adoption
- Ability and willingness to accept natural family involvement if in best interest of child
- Culturally similar background as child
- Ability to work within agency structure
The agency ensures that, where appropriate, the wishes of the child are taken into consideration in the selection of an adoptive family in accordance with the best interests of the child.
