Post-adoption/guardianship support services
Post-adoption support services may be available to families based on the needs of the child and if they are receiving an adoption subsidy. To inquire about post-adoption support for your family, please visit the US Virgin Islands Department of Human Services website or contact Charrisse Hart at charrisse.hart@dhs.vi.gov or 340-774-0930, ext. 4392.
Parent support groups
Below are support groups for adoptive, kinship, and foster families. Support groups may be offered as part of a state’s post-adoption/guardianship support program, through a statewide or regional foster or adoptive parent association, through specific agencies, or may be run independently. If we have additional information about the group’s purpose or the community served, it’s provided under the group’s contact information.
To add a group or make a suggestion, email the AdoptUSKids family support team.
