Such recruitment-based adoptions are the most difficult to carry out, social workers say.
Gonzaga, who worked with his wife Heather Setrakian at eharmony and then on the Family-Match algorithm, referred questions to Ramirez.
Social workers say Family-Match works like this: Adults seeking to adopt submit survey responses via the algorithm’s online platform, and foster parents or social workers input each child’s information.
Adoption-Share is part of a small cadre of organizations that say their algorithms can help social workers place children with foster or adoptive families.
