Guide for use:

Family composition is at the time of the placement of the adopted child in to the adoptive family.

If a family adopted more than one child during the reporting period, the family should be counted separately for each adoption. This includes multiple and serial adoptions.

The composition of an adoptive family includes both resident and non-resident children. Jurisdictions that do not collect data on non-resident children, should include a note to this effect.
