National Youth Advocate Program, Inc. is a private non-profit agency working in the states of Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, Georgia, Illinois, Florida and South Carolina. NYAP's ACTION Adoption operates in Dayton, Ohio. The program was founded and operated by adoptive mothers/licensed social workers.
The first step in the adoption process is to complete an application. You can obtain an application by calling or emailing our office to request one. The State of Ohio requires that families complete a series of trainings. ACTION offers these trainings on Friday evenings from 7:00 to 10:00 pm. Staff can give you a better idea of when it will be best for you to begin training. During your training, staff will assist you in completion of necessary paperwork. Finally, once you have finished your training requirements, a staff member will visit your home and conduct a series of interviews with all household members. This information will be used in the homestudy document. The homestudy is the document which is used to match families and children for adoption.
