Since 1995, November has been known as National Adoption Month. It serves as a time to bring awareness to the more than 100,000 children currently in foster care in the U.S. It is also a chance to honor the many adoptive and kinship families that give these children a permanent place to call home.
Florida’s courts handle millions of case filings every year, and some of those cases garner a lot of public interest. When a high-profile case is in the news or trending or social media, you can always look to the courts themselves for accurate information.
