Ethiopia Adoptions
New Beginnings cooperates with Children’s Home Society and Family
Services (CHSFS) for the Ethiopian Program. CHSFS is sponsoring a comprehensive
program providing services for the child and birth mother in Ethiopia.
It will take up to four months to complete the home study and prepare
the Dossier. From submitting a complete dossier, it will take up to nine
months for a referral. There is no gender preference for first time parents;
however, the time for a referral can be shorter if there is a preference
for a boy or no gender preference. Once you have accepted the referral
it is approximately 10 weeks before placement. The program is open to
single and married applicants. You must be under 50 to be considered
for an infant. Families can travel to adopt their child or arrange for
an escort. If you travel, you can stay the CHSFS Guest House where meals
are provided. For more information on Children’s Home Society and
Family Services visit their website at www.childrenshomeadopt.org.
