Sandra, We are newly foster-to-adopt parents of a wonderful little boy. There are many foster children throughout the U. S. waiting for permanent homes. As long as a child is in the foster care system, by law, their biological parents have the right to determine the children's religion [unless parental rights have been legally terminated], but once children are legally adopted, their adoptive parents then guide their religious education.
This doesn't exactly answer your inquiry. There is a public website www.adoptuskids.com that lists many of the waiting children in the United States. All the best, Susan Dr. Susan Berry Brill de Ramirez, Professor of English Bradley University, Peoria, IL 61625 U.S.A.
