Les rencontres avec les familles

Je me rends tous les deux ans environ en Europe. Ce voyage est l'occasion de rencontrer en France, en Allemagne, en Belgique les familles de nos

anciens petits anges. Ces moments sont riches en émotion, et en rires d'enfants.

Il m'arrive aussi d'accompagner en Europe des petis anges pour les conduire auprès de leurs nouvelles familles.

Voyage prévu en France en juin 2010.

http://www.community-living.info/documents/ECCL-StructuralFundsReport-final-WEB.pdf page 3: This report was written by Camilla Parker, with input from Ines Bulic´. The European Coalition for Community Living (ECCL) and the authors would like to thank the following organisations and individuals for their helpful comments on various parts of the report and for providing information about the use of Structural Funds in their countries: Elena Iorga and Loredana Ercus¸ from the Institute for Public Policy, Laila Onu and Nicoleta Foica from the Pentru Voi Foundation and Mariela Neagu, an expert on social assistance, for providing information on Romania and commenting on several drafts of the report; Zsolt Bugarszki, Orsolya Eszik and István Sziklai and all members of the Soteria–ELTE research team, for providing information on Hungary and commenting on several drafts of the report. page 26: An example of collaboration: Bulgaria15 A current initiative in Bulgaria provides an example of how the European Commission can facilitate collaboration across different agencies for the development of plans to establish community-based services and to consider how Structural Funds can best be used to implement these plans. In early 2009, the European Commission launched a collaborative exercise with the Bulgarian Government. This involved the European Commission’s Directorate General for Regional Policy and Directorate General for Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities taking an active role in the implementation of Bulgaria’s Operational Programme for Regional Development (OPRD) (2007–2013). The European Commission decided to intervene following the poor response of the agencies responsible for managing long stay institutions for children to a call for proposals for the renovation of the social infrastructure. The Commission wanted to ensure that the available funding was used to address the situation of children in long stay institutions in the light of a BBC documentary that had depicted the appalling conditions, poor quality of care and extreme neglect of children with disabilities in one of these institutions.16 This OPRD covers a range of areas including investments into social infrastructure, with a budget of 1.6 billion EUR. The European Commission and the Bulgarian Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works agreed that approximately 20 million EUR from the OPRD would be allocated to investments into alternative services for children currently living in residential institutions due to poverty, disability or lack of access to other services. It was also agreed that additional funding would be allocated from the European Social Fund (ESF) for staff training. The Commission Directorates of Regional Policy and of Employment had worked together, in consultation with civil society representatives, to draft an Action Plan which proposed that the Structural Funds (European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and ESF) should be invested to support the process of de-institutionalisation in Bulgaria. This allowed investments to be made in both the infrastructure (funded under the ERDF) and in the training of staff who will work in the newly established services (funded under the ESF). In addition, the European Commission and the Bulgarian authorities convened a workshop to discuss the practicalities and challenges in the implementation of the Action Plan and share information on best practice in developing community-based services from other countries. Participants included European and international civil society representatives. Following the workshop an inter-ministerial working group was established to assist the Managing Authority17 in the planning and implementation of the project.

Overview

Ghana is a beautiful country about the size of Oregon, situated in the heart of West Africa. Ghanaian people feel a great responsibility to be friendly and welcoming to visitors of their country. Foreigners are greeted with “Akwaaba! You are welcome!“ Ghana is one of the most stable countries in Africa. Unfortunately the economy has struggled and, like most African countries, the majority of people live in poverty. 45% of Ghana’s people live on less than $1 per day, and up to 60% of Ghana’s children are involved in child labor or child slavery. UNICEF estimates that there are 1,000,000 orphans in Ghana. Traditionally the extended family would take on orphaned family members. But in today’s Ghana many children are not able to remain with their biological families. AAI’s Ghana program began in 2007. Ghana families should be flexible and have a pioneering attitude that will help to pave the way for future families when unforeseen delays or changes in the process occur.

Available Children

Ghana Social Welfare prefers to place children through domestic adoptions, but when no Ghanaian family can be located for an adoptable child, they may be placed with an international family. Babies 0-36 months may be in need of adoption from time to time, but this is not an “infant/toddler program.” The large majority of children available for adoption are age 3 and up. There are many sibling sets available. HIV+ children may be adopted from Ghana. There is a great need for families who will adopt children 6 years old and older. Most all children in Ghana have at least some English skills by the time they are adopted (many with moderate English). Children adopted through our program may reside in foster homes or children’s homes in any region within Ghana.

Article Particuliers mais adoptables

On les appelait encore récemment "enfants à particularité" avant qu'un nouveau vocable moins stigmatisant n'ait pignon sur milieu de l'adoption. La réalité de ces enfants "à besoins spécifiques " a-t-elle changé pour autant ?

En 1997, Pierre Verdier et Marieke Aucante parlaient, eux, dans leur ouvrage éponyme de « ces enfants dont personne ne veut », constatant ce « douloureux paradoxe » entre le volume de parents candidats à l'adoption et l'existence de ces enfants, en France, «seuls, promis à une enfance en institution » ou en famille d'accueil.

Quelles sont les spécificités qui font que ces enfants sont difficilement adoptables ? Ce sont des enfants qui souffrent de maladies, de pathologies, de handicaps plus ou moins invalidants, de déficience mentale, des enfants plus âgés déjà " cabossés ", des fratries... Les situations, on le voit, sont extrêmement diverses, entre l'enfant trisomique abandonné à la naissance, l'enfant prématuré pour qui il y a beaucoup d'incertitude ou celui sur lequel plane le risque d'un syndrome d'alcoologie fœtale (SAF), l'enfant de plus de 6 ans, l'enfant séropositif ou atteint d'une hépatite, l'enfant avec une fente labiopalatine (bec-de-lièvre) ou un doigt surnuméraire rejeté dans son pays pour cause de superstitions...

Die schönsten Geschichten aus dem Jahr 1990

In diesem Jahr haben wir rumänische Waisenkinder auf dem Weg nach Westen begleitet, der Stadt New York eine düstere und eine paar Nachwuchskickern eine glänzende Zukunft prophezeit, das Aussterben der Nashörner beklagt und die Frau des Republikaner-Vorsitzenden Franz Schönhuber porträtiert.

1990: Acht deutsche Ehepaare fahren im Konvoi nach Rumänien, um Waisenkinder zu adoptieren. So kommen die Zwillinge Maria und Magnolia nach Ravensburg. 2010: Die beiden müssen immer noch an ihre Schwester denken.
