As Orange County Executive, I am extremely pleased and gratified to introduce this important new online resource to the residents of Orange County and beyond. Developed under the direction of the Department of Social Services, AdoptOrangeCountyNY.org is a comprehensive adoption showcase for some of the County’s neediest children.

Whether because of age, prior family circumstance, or other considerations, these children are still waiting for adoption. As a result, their need and desire for loving, stable homes grows more acute with each passing day.  If you have room in your home and in your heart, I urge you to Meet Our Children right here in our new web site. Your love, guidance and understanding are truly the keys needed to help a deserving child realize his or her full potential and open the door to a happy and productive future.
