Two Adoption Agencies Closed Down Last Week!

By Claudia Corrigan DArcy | February 13, 2013 |

Adoption Ark and Christian World Adoption Closed for Business!

At first, I thought I was dreaming, but the shock has started to wear off. Plus, the Associated Press has reported it now as well: Adoption Ark and Christian World Adoption have both announced they are closing their doors and filing for bankruptcy in the span of one last week.

I was first alerted to this when I saw the emails sent out to families on Facebook, both agencies have since taken down their website pages and posted the contents of the emails sent. Rather than post it in its lengthy entirety, you may read it yourself here on the Christian World Adoption site.

Portugal

De NAS heeft eind 2012 accreditatie aangevraagd voor adoptiebemiddeling vanuit Portugal. De verwachting is dat de accreditatie in de eerste helft van dit jaar wordt afgegeven. In overleg met de Portugese Centrale autoriteit is besloten om vanaf heden (7 februari 2013) alvast de vooraankondiging voor de openstelling van de wachtlijst te doen. U kunt zich dus nu al aanmelden voor dit programma.

Adopties vanuit Portugal moeten in Nederland worden geformaliseerd met een adoptieprocedure naar Nederlands recht. Portugal is aangesloten bij het Haags adoptieverdrag, maar de kinderen komen op een voogdij beschikking naar Nederland. Conform de Portugese wet wordt eerst een aantal opvolgrapportages gemaakt, waarna de adoptieouders toestemming krijgen om de adoptieprocedure naar Nederlands recht af te ronden.

Een plaatsing vanuit de Portugese gebiedsdelen Madeira (voor de kust van westelijk Afrika) of de Azoren (in de Atlantische Oceaan) behoort ook tot de mogelijkheden, indien het kind tot moment van plaatsing in één van deze gebiedsdelen woonachtig is.
