<p>Our national adoption strategy ‘Achieving Excellence Everywhere’, published in
July 2021, makes clear our ambition to support regional adoption agency leaders to
ensure that support for adopted children and families is provided throughout childhood
and in the transition into adulthood, whenever it is required. We recognise the importance
of such support plans being in place even before the child moves into their adoptive
family.</p><p>The adoption strategy focuses on the clear need to find families for
children, not children for families, and for recruitment campaigns to focus particularly
on seeking adopters for those children who often wait the longest. The strategy also
sets out a range of ways to improve matching. As well as promoting existing methods
and tools to secure matches for children without delay, we want to see new processes
and procedures put in place to speed up the sharing of adopters across regions.</p>
