a. Contact a private agency in your state involved in adoption placement. Ask the agency what criteria it uses in recommending an adoption. Also, ask the agency to send you any available literature that lists such standards (e.g., pamphlets, applications). Compare these standards with your answers to the questions in the preceding assignment (15.4). Does the agency’s practice conform with the standards of the law of your state?

b. Same question as in part

(a) above except that this time a public agency should be contacted.
