More than 2,000 children in North Carolina live in foster care, waiting and hoping for adoption, with more than 600 of them being teenagers who face tougher odds of getting adopted.Adopt US Kids says a quarter of those children are teenagers who face tougher odds of getting adopted.Now in its 20th year, Adopt US Kids has helped place more than a million kids in adopted homes.This year's campaign focuses on teens under the tagline, "You can't imagine the reward." A young man adopted as a teenager shares what kids are looking for."Wanting love, wanting to wake up in the morning and know that they're going to lay their head down at the same place because the real big problem across the US is just not having a place to call home," Taylor Durard said.Durard says until he was adopted, he didn't have the capacity to dream about opportunities."All I could think about was the easiest way to survive, the easiest way to have a roof over my head," Durard said.Now age 20, Taylor attends college with hopes of becoming an international lawyer."I stopped having this idea of surviving and I started thriving," Durard said.More than 600 North Carolina teens are waiting for that same opportunity today."When young people age out of foster care, they face far greater challenges, and it's just more difficult for them to maneuver through life alone," Kamilah Bunn, CEO of the National Adoption Association, said.Adoption officials say common misconceptions include the belief that you have to be married or wealthy to adopt, neither of which is true."It's a challenge, it's something that we're hoping that your viewers today take on and take the first step by visiting adoptuskids.org," Bunn said.Adopt US Kids is a federally funded project that helps children in foster homes find permanent homes through adoption.The project also helps parents who are looking to adopt a child into their home.
