"Philosophy of the Adoption Program"
Every child in Sherburne County who is legally free for adoption deserves a permanent home.
The Sherburne County Health and Human Services' Adoption Program works primarily with children who have been involved with the child protection system. Children become involved with child protection when they cannot remain safely in their own home, due to abuse or neglect. When this occurs, the County provides services to families in order to improve the conditions and / or behaviors so that children can be reunified with their parents as soon as possible.
