“Of course, as the number of children in foster care declines, as it has in New York City, it becomes increasingly difficult for states to qualify for adoption incentive awards. In order to receive such a bonus, states must exceed the highest number of adoptions they have achieved since the base year. Some have suggested that an alternative, and potentially more accurate, method for determining bonuses would be to look at the percentage of children in foster care who are adopted as opposed to the raw number.”
