Ukraine Child Selection Process - A Story

This is a touching story from, Karen, owner of the Hospitality House in Kiev, as she recounts the emotional rollercoaster ride of the Degnan family as they go through the Ukraine child selection process.

I personally did not go through this process since I adopted a special-needs child. Special-needs children's profiles are available through adoption agencies to help promote children that otherwise would never be known about.  When you start the adoption process you pay the adoption agency a fee which is your "down payment" to reserve a particular child. This way the child does not show up on a database for other families to request. We found our child on Reece's Rainbow, which after inquiry, we were directed to contact a specific adoption agency, which was handling representation for that particular child. We had no choice on the agency, but after all was said and done, we were very pleased to have used About A Child.
