There are many jurisdictions that are doing a good job, both inside and outside of Canada. There are many best practices, as was discussed by Mr. Watson today.
I'm particularly familiar with what's going on in the United States right now. They have been much more aggressive with many of their recruitment ideas in many U.S. states. For instance, there's an agency in New York City called “You Gotta Believe!” and its sole purpose is to move young people who are aging out of the foster care system and place them in permanent homes. They have found adoptive families for young people who are 18, 19, 20, or 21.
Generally in Canada--and maybe Barbara can correct me--there has been a feeling amongst both the general population and the workers in the children's aid societies that these young people, these teens, are not adoptable, but I think we can change that. Certainly the Adoption Council of Canada has a philosophy--and I think it's shared by the Children's Aid Society here in Ottawa--that no child, no young person, is unadoptable.
