Adoption England has launched its three-year strategy to "modernise adoption services" in England, setting a goal to recruit adopters from diverse communities to support more children’s needs.

The organisation defines modern adoption as “a progressive and inclusive system that prioritises the well-being of children, provides robust support to adopted people, their adoptive and birth families and respects diversity in all its forms.”

The strategy  covers the period until March 2027, including regional variations to take into account the different needs of children across the country.

Other aims laid out in the document include allowing adopted people to maintain relationships with people important to them to help understand why they were adopted, while giving all people involved in the adoption process the opportunity to influence how services are provided nationally.
