RELATED ADOPTIONS IN ILLINOIS
Adopting a relative can be a deeply rewarding experience, providing a child with a loving and stable home within their extended family. In Illinois, related adoptions—where the adopting parent is related to the child by blood or marriage—are common and often more straightforward than other types of adoption.
This process typically involves stepparent adoptions, grandparent adoptions, or adoptions by other relatives, such as aunts, uncles, or siblings.
​
Related adoptions offer several benefits, including continuity of family relationships and a smoother transition for the child, who remains within their familiar family environment. However, the legal requirements and procedures must be carefully navigated to ensure the adoption is legally sound and in the best interests of the child.
The process usually involves obtaining the biological parents' consent, home studies, background checks, and court hearings to finalize the adoption.
