Wilder Research worked with staff from Ampersand Families to design a post-adoption follow-up study that focused on the outcomes of youth adopted as older children and the families who adopt. This report presents the results of interviews with youth adoptees and adoptive parents.
Minnesota-based Ampersand Families was interested in understanding more about the long-term outcomes for adopted youth and families. The organization specializes exclusively in permanency for older youth, and over the past 10 years has helped move about 160 youth into permanent families.
