  Getting Started on Your Adoption: Home Study

You may have your home study conducted by any qualified social worker. In Virginia and DC, we can conduct the study. Here are some other agencies who perform studies in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area. Catholic Charities is also available in most major US cities. We have a standard checklist to be used in a home study conducted for an international adoption.
