The Adoption and Child Welfare JobSite
1) What is the Adoption & Child Welfare JobSite?
The Adoption & Child Welfare JobSite is a FREE webservice created and managed by the National Center for Adoption Law and Policy at Capital University Law School. Unlike other employment websites, the JobSite is specifically limited to employment opportunities in the adoption and child welfare fields. The JobSite connects legal and social work students and professionals with adoption and child welfare employers across the country. By helping to link qualified individuals with employers dedicated to working with children and families, we seek to advance our goal that all children will have safe, healthy, permanent homes.

How To Use This Site
1) How do I search for a position on the Adoption & Child Welfare Jobsite?
You may access information through keywords, job categories, or zip code searches, or any combination of these methods.
Keywords
If you include multiple keywords, try separating the keywords with a comma (","). For example, searching for "George Washington" (no comma) will find all matches of the full name "George Washington," whereas searching for "George, Washington" (comma) will find all matches of "George" and all matches of "Washington."
The option to specifically search job titles for keywords is available. Please note, however, that only searching job titles narrows your search by making results very specific.
Job Categories
Select one category, or use “ctrl and click” to select multiple job categories. If you would like to search all job categories, click on ‘All’. Selecting “All” in the job category is a very general search that will return all the jobs that are active in our system.
Zip Code
A search can be done solely by zip code. To get a more accurate search, select the radius of the zip code you are entering. For example, if you enter 43215 as the zip code, it pulls only those jobs with that exact zip code. If you select a 20 mile radius in addition to the 43215 zip code, the search encompasses a greater area and provides more accurate information.
Repeat Searches
The option of going back to your previous search is available. Click on “Repeat Last Search”.
