Children’s Hope International is
now registered with the Ministry
of Justice as an NGO under the
new regulations. This is the
first
step for the new process of
non-expiring accreditation.
As of May 2006, the Russian
government decided to
implement a non-expiring
accreditation for agencies
working in Russia. To
complete this process, the
first step is to register
with the Ministry of
Justice. This must be
completed by all agencies
in order to continue their
work in Russia.
We continue to have families
traveling for their first
trips and court dates during
this accreditation
process. Applications are
received daily.
More than
1400 families have adopted
in Russia since we started our
program - 201 in 2006.
Our Russian adoption program is
well-organized and is registered
with full authority to work in
Russia. It's overseen by trained
and caring representatives in
nine regions. They are dedicated
to assisting families during
their adoption process.
We make it our goal to be well
informed and in touch, with a
view of giving very personal
care to families in preparation,
in travel and in successfully
finalizing their Russian
adoption. We have worked and
traveled widely in Russia
establishing relationships and
working out all the adoption
details with officials in the
central and regional governments
as well as with orphanage
directors.
We have a Russian adoption
office with a National
Coordinator and Travel
Coordinator and staff in Moscow
with full-time representatives
in different regions throughout
Russia. CHI gives special
attention to Russian adoption
and we recommend you contact CHI
families regarding their
experience with CHI.
"We used CHI, not because we
thought everything would be
perfect, but because we knew
everything would be handled"
