How we help professionals

We help professionals find families for youth on their caseloads by supporting recruitment efforts and youth engagement opportunities.

Accounts for professionals in Washington State

Washington caseworkers can create an account to get even more from Northwest Adoption Exchange. Caseworkers with an account can:

• View Washington youth profiles that are password protected.
• Register youth for a profile.
• View and filter search family profiles. (Note: many families now have videos!)

Apply for a caseworker account.

Recruit permanent families for youth in foster care

Through youth profiles, family profiles, and family matching events, we collaborate with caseworkers to find permanency for youth.

Engage youth in their own permanency planning

Through projects like In-Depth Profiles and webinars for professionals, we provide caseworkers with resources to give youth more understanding, voice, and decision-making power in their search for permanency.
