Families must have an approved Family Profile (home study) to adopt a child. Only those families with approved profiles will be considered by the child’s caseworker in the county children and youth agency with custody of the child.

The information is given by PAE based solely on the statement of the family that they are approved to adopt. Families in Pennsylvania without an approved Family Profile are directed to contact 1-800-585-SWAN to pursue an agency in their geographic area. Families living outside of Pennsylvania are encouraged to work with an agency in their state to prepare the profile.

Biography

Lea is a quiet and shy, yet energetic girl with autism. She is very curious and has a strong will. Lea has good concentration skills that enable her to put puzzles together and play building games. She is able to follow instructions for simple tasks, and is able to adjust to small changes over time.

Lea requires a structured routine to feel comfortable in daily activities. As change is difficult for Lea, any outing must be planned well in advance to allow her to adjust to the idea of going out in public.

Lea needs a patient, supportive and loving family that will provide her with consistent supervision and attention.

All families will be considered for Lea. She is legally free for adoption.
