Comment on Follow Julie’s Travels to Armenia & Moldova! by Julie Glandt

I’m back home and begging to adjust to the new time schedule. I look back on this trip and feel very satisfied that this trip will make a difference for the neediest children. All the meetings with officials and representatives make the process feel overwhelming at times but step by step we will work through the legal issues, the difficult decisions and focus on what is in the best interest of each child.
Today another little boy leaves Moldova, with new parents. Both his biological parents died in 2008 and now his life will begin again with a new American family who will love and care for him. A new life filled with hope and love for this little boy and others like him make all the effort worthwhile.
Please contact CAS if you would like more information about our programs. We have lots of opportunities for you to partner with us as we change the world…one child at a time.

Armenia is a surprising country. It is very beautiful with mountains and rocky hills and valleys. Then there are forested regions with beautiful ancient churches. The people are very friendly and open with visitors. I have visited the orphanage where most infants are placed. The director has been here for many years and has seen a lot of changes. She recalled a time with no electricity and no water. It was impossible to take good care of children. Now things are very nice. The children have good food, clean and new clothing, adequate play space and so much more. As in most countries pictures of the orphanages and children are prohibited. The director was very protective of these children so I won’t be able to post orphanage pictures to this site.
There are a limited number of children available for adoption. There are more older children or children with special needs needing families. The Head of Armenia’s Central Authority for adoption would like to do everything possible to find homes for the children in the 16 orphanages across the country.
The revised adoption law will be considered by the government in the coming weeks and months. There will be many positive changes such as defined time lines for adoptions and defined roles from those involved.
Currently, the process in Armenia is deliberately slow. The efforts to keep children in their country and with their biological family has been a primary focus.
Our attorney and the support staff are excited to be able to help orphaned children and adoptive families find each other. I have confidence that this is an excellent opportunity for adoptive Armenian families!

I am finding it more difficult to get to the internet than when I was in Moldova. I am staying in an apartment in the center of the city but I it does not have internet access. In fact, between 12:00 and 6:00pm there is no water. This is life in the city and there are times when I am tempted to move to the comfort of a hotel!
I have been working the last two days with our attorney. The political problems of March and the killing of 10 people has caused problems throughout the government system. She is working hard on our family cases and we hope to have more information this week.
Today, I will visit with US Embassy staff, tomorrow with the head of the central authority and hopefully will be at the orphanage. The system here is complex and we need to work according to the Armenia regulations.
I visited beautiful Lake Seven and the ancient churches of Armenia! It will be a delight for traveling families to go there when they come for their adoptions.
I will try and post pictures soon but this internet cafe does not have that possibility. I will write again soon.
