IAVAAN - International Association of Voluntary Adoption Agencies and NGO's

Background

IAVAAN was founded in 1991 as an international NGO. Beginning in 2001, because of interest expressed by groups and individuals in a number of countries in having their own national "Committees" for IAVAAN, work was done to restructure IAVAAN and to provide for the creation of these Committees. The first Committee to be organized was the U.S.A. Committee for IAVAAN, which held its initial organizing meeting and elected its officers in Washington, D.C. on March 28, 2001. Committees are in formation or being considered in each of the following locations. Groups or individuals domiciled outside the U.S.A. should contact the USA Committee in the interim, and they will be put in touch with the appropriate organizers by USA Committee volunteers or staff.
