Educational Grants for adopted children?

Hey yall – we are in the process of adopting a child classified as “special needs” from the foster care system. Is anyone aware of any companies or any federal programs that have scholarships/grants to assist with college expenses?
We live in Georgia and there are no state programs available to assist since he was not in foster care during his teen years.

Some sites to look at:
