Should We Expand Our Special Needs Checklist to Include HIV? - Weekend Wisdom
Description
Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.
Question: My husband and I are considering whether we will open our special needs consideration to include children who are HIV+. We have already been approved to adopt from India, and as our home study update approaches, we are taking a good, hard look at the Special Needs list again. I was listening to your podcast episode on this topic from 2013 and wondered if this was worth an updated episode? Has much changed for families living with HIV?
