Adoption Agencies....?

Does anyone know any good International Adotion Agencies? Additional Details Money is not the problem. I don't understand how I would go about adopting from another country. Can someone please explain the process? Can someone recommend an adoption agency, maybe one you've used or a friend to adopt a child

Can you be a little more specific? Is there a particular country program you're looking at? There are some large agencies with many country programs and some smaller ones with only a couple of programs.
Here are a couple of sites:
www.adoptionagencyratings.com
www.jcics.org
www.informedadoptions.com
Also look at the US state department sites on intercountry adoption (it's country-specific). A good overall look at the international adoption process is presented in the book "How to Adopt Internationally."
IA is a daunting process. Parenting adopted children from another country has a lot of challenges. Start by information gathering. Email me if you have any specific questions.
Best of luck to you.
ETA: Sorry, I'm having trouble adding the links! |

They're all good at getting kiddies. You have to be more specific about "good" and include how much money you have to spend. It will make a big difference. |

I think WACAP is an ethical and giving agency. Process? Packet, apply, homestudy, approval or disapproval, tons of agency and INS paperwork, receive a referral, make first trip, meet your child, return home, second trip, court hearings, if approved-- come home with your child. Not all families are approved and not all families should be approved. Timeline? From first call to returning home, about 18 months to three years. |
