HI Rick and Cheri, I know someone on the Island that seriously looked into this last year. She was told that in-country adoption was pretty easy, and relatively inexpensive. However, when I called a Stateside attorney for her to get info about bringing the child into the States -at any point- visit or move, it got very complicated, very grey, and very expensive.
I would think that adoption would be welcome, to help some of these children, and I understand there are many.....
She was told that private adoption was the easiest route. However, that was the one that the US has the most problems with....

This is the sweetest post I have seen. Bless you much. Do not let paperwork, and jumping through hoops stop you from giving children a good warm loving home, with education. You can make a difference for yourselves and children.

I do know that they allow people (who have been screened-- a basic interview), take a child for a holiday, weekend, etc..... so even if you have no interest in full time, it's still a great way to make a child's holiday special. Maybe we could send down some goodie bags, with some $$.
