§ 8907 Adoption Agency Fee Funding

Key Takeaways

  • •Adoption agencies must pay for their programs using fees from the people they help.
  • •The agency can't just charge whatever they want—they need approval from the government first.
  • •If the agency wants to change their fees, they have to ask the government again for permission.

Example

A family wants to adopt a child and goes to an adoption agency for help.

The agency will charge the family fees for their services, but those fees must be approved by the government first. If the agency later wants to charge more, they have to get approval again.
