A home study is required for all domestic
and international adoptions. The home study process gives
prospective adoptive parents a chance to discuss aspects of
adoption that may concern them and to become educated in adoption
related issues. The home study will meet all Texas licensing
standards and can be used for any international and domestic
adoption. A home study will ensure that children are placed
in safe and loving homes.
