Haiti - Heritage Adoption Services-Non-profit Adoption Agency licensed in Oregon and Washington

A FABULOUS PROGRAM IN HAITI

The beautiful children of Haiti are in need of loving homes!

The children of Haiti have parents who love them, but they are unable to care for their children due to the abject poverty that surrounds them. The children come to the orphanage to begin the journey to a loving family in the United States.

Only 3-4 Nights in Haiti and you can return home
The process is FAST and EFFICIENT
The children are well cared for and prepared for adoption
Fees are much less than most international programs

WHO CAN ADOPT FROM HAITI?

Single women 30 years of age or over
Married couples—Prior divorce accepted
At least one parent MUST be 30 years of age.
At least one parent MUST be a U.S. citizen.
Parents must be Christian
At this time, families must have no more than 4 children in the home at the time of placement.

WHAT IS AN ADOPTION FROM HAITI LIKE?

The children come from an orphanage which lovingly cares for them until their “forever families” can be found.

Both girls and boys are waiting for homes; from 4 months-15 years of age and you CAN parent either a boy or a girl. You may also choose a sibling group.

The children are tested for HIV, Hepatitis B, TB and Sickle Cell Anemia.

The adoption process is one of the fastest, 4-6 months from the time the family Dossier arrives in Haiti, until the family is ready to travel. Additionally we must allow time for clearance from the Immigration and Naturalization Service, assembling the necessary documentation for the adoption and the actual adoption in Haiti.

However, PLEASE keep in mind that there are variables over which Heritage has NO control which may affect this time frame. These variables include how long it takes to have your Home Study completed, to assemble the required documents and have them legalized, the adoption protocol in Haiti AND changes in U.S. Immigration regulations.
