Strengthening Post-Permanency Services Nationwide
The National Center for Enhanced Post‑Adoption Support serves as a national hub for states, tribal nations, and territories advancing strong, post‑permanency systems. We provide free, collaborative, and community‑informed support that enables child welfare professionals to implement and sustain comprehensive, responsive, and accessible post‑permanency services nationwide.

Types of Technical Assistance
“When Oregon began TA with the National Center for Enhanced Post Adoption Support, we were aware of the gaps we faced and had an equally clear understanding of just how significant and complex this work is. TA provided us with direction: access to research, professional expertise, and peer states navigating the same challenges. It’s given us a foundation to build from and a community to lean on. Not every challenge will be solved overnight, but it has empowered us to keep striving for the best possible outcomes for Oregon’s adoptive and guardianship families.”
“California had a ‘preliminary’ vision for our post-permanency services and the Post-Adoption Center was able to expand, finalize and assist in executing.”
“The technical assistance provided by the National Center for Enhanced Post-Adoption Support has been invaluable. Their collaborative approach, innovative thinking, and ongoing support have helped us strengthen services for families and build more effective, sustainable post-adoption supports.”
