The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services today awarded Hawaii $204,000 for increasing the number of children adopted from foster care.
The state can use the money to enhance its programs for abused and neglected children.
“Adopting a child from foster care is a wonderful way to enrich any family’s life,” HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said in a statement.
“We congratulate Hawaii on performing so well this year and we thank the parents who are providing loving and permanent homes.”
