Russian Adoption

Good news for people adopting from Russia, which apparently has 700,000 children in orphanages.

Russia renews adoption agencies' licenses
Russia has reopened its doors to Americans who want to adopt children, re-accrediting seven adoption agencies based in the USA.

Licenses granted in the past two weeks will enable the agencies to resume helping Americans adopt from among the 700,000 Russian children in orphanages, says Lee Allen, spokesman for the private National Council For Adoption.
