This is the point I was going to bring up. Both Hyur and Raen lived in Doma. So, it isn't unfeasible that a Doman Hyur family could've adopted a Raen. Or an Auri family a Hyur child. There is the racism and xenophobia inherent on Hydaelyn, but being from the same nation (Doma, in this case) could help "alleviate" those concerns some.
And this can work for other situations as well if you finagle it enough. Chachan is currently dating a Miqo'te girl who was adopted by a family of Highlanders - the two families had become friends, so they took her in when disaster struck for the girl's actual parents.
It should also be noted that most of the racism and whatnot seems to be about inter-species relationships. Adopting one of another race and raising them isn't quite as touched on. Keep in mind that Minfilia was more or less raised by a Miqo'te herself after the incidents brought up in 1.0.
