The Americans Abroad Program is designed for families who reside outside the US. This includes U.S. citizens temporarily or permanently living abroad such as military families and expats, as well as dual nationality couples.

Children's House International has a consultant for the Americans Abroad program who is familiar with the difficulties related to obtaining documents while living in a foreign country. She has been affiliated with Children's House International for over 10 years, and with domestic adoptions for 20 years as a private attorney.

All families living overseas who want to do a Hague adoption must have written approval from adoption authorities in their country of residence prior to proceeding with the adoption .  Please contact us for more detailed information.

We are proud to say that our consultant was recognized for her work in adoptions with a national award in 2005 and was presented by the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute the outstanding award of an "Angel In Adoption" for 20 years serving children and families.
