Growing Up Adopted: Study Highlights Health, Happiness of Adopted Children

A recent report by the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services may put to rest many of the arguments or concerns U.S. citizens have about the impact of adoption on children.

The report, titled "Adoption USA," was compiled from data from the 2007 National Survey of Adoptive Parents – a federal survey of 2,000 families that adopted children from foster care, internationally or through private domestic adoption.

The report found that 85 percent of adoptive children are in excellent or very good health, and that adoptive children are more likely to have health insurance than children in the general population. Adopted children also were less likely to live in households below the poverty threshold.

The report also found that adopted children benefit in other ways than children in the general population:
