Vietnam Adoption
Children's Hope
International began working in Vietnam in 1998. We have been
doing humanitarian aid there ever since and did not stop our
humanitarian aid support during the 3 year moratorium. From 2003
to 2006, adoptions in Vietnam closed to US families and the
entire adoption system in Vietnam was restructured. In June
2005, the US and Vietnam signed the memorandum of agreement to
allow adoptions to resume with US families. Vietnam now requires
that all agencies be licensed. CHI was licensed on January 25,
2006 and we completed 60 adoptions the first year it opened.

Hope International is now licensed to provide placement for
orphans from Ethiopia. Applications are being received. Children
waiting for placement are male and female,
infant to 15
years old, healthy as
well as special needs.

birth and sibling groups are available.
Many children have resided in a local orphanage, community care
or in the hospital of birth prior to being matched with a
family. The children are tested for HIV, Hepatitis B,
Tuberculosis and Venereal Disease prior to being placed.
