Will It Always Be Cheaper to Adopt Black Babies?

Will It Always Be Cheaper to Adopt Black Babies? | Babble:

Recently, NPR’s Morning Edition placed a clip called “Black Babies Cost Less to Adopt” fromThe Race Card Project and I breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, someone else was talking about this.

Note:In NH parents of bi-racial children in Foster care, (who look white) are told by NH DCYF not to tell anyone the child is bi-racial. I've always heard this is because the white child is worth more and easier to place. In NH, statistics show the highest percentage of stolen children are whit, unlike other States. Also in NH, in order to get adoption assistance:1. What specific factors or conditions does your state consider to determine that a child cannot be placed with adoptive parents without providing financial. 
assistance? (“What is your state definition of special needs?”).
A child with special needs is defined as a child that has at least one of the following needs or circumstances. 
that may be a barrier to placement or adoption without financial assistance: 
• Six years of age or older (if age is the only factor used to determine the need for adoption assistance). 
• Member of a minority or ethnic group. 
• Member of a sibling group of two or more which should be placed together. 
• A physical or mental handicap or emotional disturbance. 
• A language barrier.
