Carolina Adoption Services is not accepting applications to the Haiti adoption program. Once the Haitian government is able to move forward with adoptions we will begin accepting applications again.
Read the U.S. State Department’s statement on Haitian orphans and adoption here.
We understand that Americans, moved by images of children in need, want to open their homes and adopt Haitian children. In view of this, a Haitian Adoption Waiting List has been created for families specifically interested in Haiti. By completing the Haitian Adoption Waiting List form you are assured a place on the waiting list, regular updates on the status of Haiti, and agency newsletters.

Haiti has always been supportive of international adoption and the hope is that those sentiments will only increase as more and more children come into care due to the recent tragedy. However, as we’ve seen, the existing government has been virtually destroyed and it is impossible to predict how this will affect the timing and processing of international adoptions. Right now, the people of Haiti are in survival mode, leaving the state of international adoptions low on the list of priorities.
At this time we are unable to accept applications for the Haiti adoption program. If you would like to continue to receive updates on Haiti, please fill out the Request Information form and you will be added to our update list.
Please know that right now our main priority, along with that of the Joint Council on International Services and other humanitarian aid organizations, is ensuring the health and safety of the children and caregivers in Haiti. Substantial monetary aide is needed to allow the orphanage staff to buy the essential items necessary for survival. Please consider making a donation to our Haiti relief fund via our website.

If you are interested in growing your family through adoption at this time please consider the many waiting children worldwide. Visit our international programs to learn more about the countries and children available.
