I can't remember the exact number. "waiting children" will get you better search results than "legally free" when you google. The last thing I remember seeing was in the 120,000-150,000 range.

You should be able to search "children in foster care available for adoption" and find at least something. If you can't find anything, call your local Family Services office. They should be able to provide you with some local statistics. Good luck. Try changing the word free to “available”.
