Family Connections
Christian Adoptions works in partnership with
Mother's
Choice (www.motherschoice.org) to facilitate the adoption of special
needs children from Hong Kong. The children range in age from
2-8 years old and the type and severity of the special needs vary
from child to child.
Travel is not required with the Hong Kong program. You may travel
if you wish, or you may hire an escort to travel for you. You
can expect to travel 3-5 months after you receive a child referral.
These two
children have found their forever family, but there are many
more adorable children who wait in Hong Kong.
