I agree. I would like some of that info,too. I know it sounds really hollywood.. but I wonder if the Jolie-Pitt Foundation has any recommendations.

My very good friend is in the process of an international adoption and she and her husband are working through the Gladney Foundation. She really appreciated how much they hold your hand and lead you through everything. She is adopting from China, but they have many different countries they work with.
Their web site is adoptionsbygladney.com
Good Luck. Keep the fatih,

Thanks for the info "klane"--great web site.

Court,

I have a son that I adopted from Kazakhstan. We worked with an agency called Commonwealth Adoptions International based out of Arizona, but they have satellite offices in many states. It was a wonderful experience through them and I would highly recommend that you at least check them out. They have programs to many countries, not just KZ (although I would highly recommed KZ too). Let me know if you have any questions about international adoption. I would be happy to give any information I can to help. Sincerely, Leslie

Oh, here is their website.
http://www.commonwealthadoption.org/

Thank you all so much!! I hadn't heard of either of those two agencies. We are looking to adopt a little girl from China.
(95% of children available from China are girls)
Thanks everyone!

I attended an informational meeting hosted by Children's Hope International www.childrenshopeint.org and found them to be very accommodating, nice and very informational. Their info packets were very easy to understand, also. I checked and they do have offices everywhere in the US. I say it's worth checking them out, too.

Go to www.bethany.org or call 1-800-BETHANY!!!

Thanks everyone. It looks like Childrens Home International has a meeting in July that we can go to.
Thanks everyone :)

I also recommend www.bethany.org or call them at 1-800-Bethany.
