| Overview |
The India Adoption Program is stable with a long reputation of placing children. Children are available primarily due to poverty.
Children Available:
In India, children who need families range in age from infants to preteens. On occasion, siblings are available. Most children are placed directly from child welfare institutions, and the youngest children often have diagnosed medical concerns associated with low birth weight and prematurity..
Parent Qualifications:
Guidelines in India are flexible based on the needs of the child. Married couples and single women may adopt. There must be no more than three children already in your home. Couples adopting infants must have a combined age no greater than 90, and neither parent should be older than 55. (This rule is flexible for couples who wish to adopt older children.).
Travel:
Travel is usually 3-5 days.
Timeline:
You may wait 0-6 months for a referral once your homestudy has been approved.
