Famlies share feelings on their experience with the agency, the China Program Coordinator Stefani, and their outstanding Chinese facilitator Charlene.

Stefani, Charlene, and their Chinese travel staff, have been incredible! They pulled our trip together in record time and we can't thank them enough. All of you that are waiting for referrals through CHI are in the best and most capable hands. Thanks again.     Karen V. ILLINOIS

CHI has been, is, and will continue to be in the future, wonderful to you and all the other families that they continue to bless.     Nancy J. IDAHO

Thank you for the wonderful work you do to keep us up to date on everything. You are a true angel. Again, thank you for the Waiting Child Program and all the work you do every day to bring families together w/their children. You are awesome! You are my heroes!     Angel H. KENTUCKY

Stefani is a wonderful asset and representative of CHI and the entire adoption process. I can't imagine working with a finer person in the process of adopting a child.     Marcia P. SOUTH CAROLINA

Our family would like to send a huge hug your way! Thank you for all your hard work in paving the path to our daughter. You guys are the best!!     Valerie S. ARIZONA

We actually began the adoption process with another agency and soon became very displeased with their service. One day I met someone who had adopted a child thru Children's House International and she referred us to Stefani. I contacted them the same week and we soon started the adoption process all over again. This time it was different. Stefani and Charlene have been so wonderful in all aspects of the adoption process. A complete turnaround from the previous agency. We were so fortunate to have found this agency and that they have two special people working with the China adoption program.     Anita V. KY

Thank goodness we have Stefani and Charlene! We are blessed with an agency that keeps us informed and looks our for our best interests.     Cindy R. WASHINGTON

Thanks for all you do Stefani and Charlene! You guys are great!     Karen C. UTAH

I just wanted to say "thank you" for taking care of us all and keeping us informed. You are a tremendous asset to this agency and to our lives. Thanks for all your energy and enthusiasm. Thank you for everything!     Christine M. WASHINGTON

Those first two months home being an adjustment are an UNDERSTATEMENT!! I literally cried for 7 weeks straight! I asked myself "what have we done?!?" Thank God that Stefani knew just when to call - she saved me each time with her phone calls, I truly don't know what I would have done without hearing her voice and the right words she knew to say to me.     Kathie B. ALABAMA

One of the reasons I even got to adopt and what got us through it alive, was because I had Stefani. I would have died without the common sense encouragement I got from her. CHI families are in good hands.     Betsy F. UTAH

The Children's House International China Program (aka Stefani and Charlene) have been wonderful to work with. Their dedication and passionate enthusiasm for helping us find our child is apparent in every question they answer and all advise they give. They were blessed by the CCAA to have the unique opportunity to place 'waiting children' in a more timely manner and I am sure they will make this new program successful.     Chris and Francine C. KENTUCKY

Charlene and Stefani have responded so quickly to everything throughout this entire process. We have never had cause to worry, because we felt we were in competent hands. Thank You!     Ruth H. UTAH

I have already completed one adoption with CHI and have a very wonderful 4 year old girl. I got her when she was just two (and only 19 lbs.!) I give much thanks to Stefani and Stephen who are almost like a heroine and hero to me because of their incredible support for me and my daughter. Adopting from China is a scary process and we all need each others support. I am now just completing the adoption of another toddler from China with CHI.     Chris P. NJ

Charlene is amazing! How many other agencies contact the orphanages directly to get or give progress reports on your child? Not any I know of to the extent Charlene does! I know of several times she has contacted the orphanage where my daughter was. We are so lucky!     Jane H. UT

If I have one piece of advice its ASK QUESTIONS! Stefani has heard them all and I think I asked them all - twice (at least) - and she and everyone else in our CHI support group is more than happy to help. This group is wonderful - very supportive and understanding - feel free to ask, ask, ask...     VJ A. SC

We love hearing all that you say to us and each other in such positive support in our desires to bring to our homes a child from China to raise as our own children. This is a great supportive group.     Avis F. CA

Throughout the entire adoption process there is great support - emotional, dossier completion, a CHI specific Internet support group of parents in all stages of adoption, etc. Even while you are traveling in China with your new child, both Stefani (via phone or email) and the guides are willing and able to help with questions, concerns or problems. We highly recommend Children's House International for international adoption. Adoption is not a business to this agency, they are about making families.     Betsy M. PA
