Adoption USA: A Chartbook of the 2007 National Survey of Adoptive Parents
"This Chartbook presents findings from the 2007 National Survey of Adoptive Parents (NSAP). The NSAP is the first-ever survey to provide representative information about the characteristics, adoption experiences, and wellbeing of adopted children and their families in the United States. All information was reported by the children’s adoptive parents. The findings represent children under age 18 who were adopted and living with neither biological parent. This includes children adopted from foster care, from other domestic sources, and from other countries. Furthermore, the Chartbook includes comparable information on children in the general population for many indicators of well-being, based on data from the 2007 National Survey of Children’s Health (NSCH)..."
