Argentina seeks families for children through public adoption calls

In Corrientes, the Family, Children and Adolescence Court under Judge Edgardo Frutos issued a public invitation for individuals or couples to adopt 12‑year‑old “Manu.” Manu has a mild intellectual disability and lives with his siblings and caretaker; the notice stresses the need for a stable, caring home and provides contact details for application.

In Buenos Aires City, authorities detailed the legal requirements and steps for adoption, including mandatory virtual informational meetings, a minimum adopter age of 25, a 16‑year age gap, permanent residency, and registration in the Unified Registry of Applicants for Guardianship with Adoption Purposes (RUAGA). Prospective adoptive families must pre‑register through the city’s online portal, receive a certificate of attendance, and then undergo an evaluation that may involve personal interviews and home visits.
