Abstract
Approximately 800 special needs adoptive parents responded to a mailed questionnaire as part of a study of special needs adoption in relation to race and social class. Most parents reported good outcomes of the adoption as well as good relationships with their children. Minority parents, low-income parents, and less-educated parents reported more positive parent-child relationships. Controlling for numerous variables, these factors were modest predictors of good relationship in multivariate analyses. Strengths of minority and low-income adoptive families are discussed, and policy recommendations are advanced.
