This program is: open on a limited basis

The Ethiopian government has authorized very few adoption agencies to operate in that country. If adoptions are attempted by outside means, the children will not be eligible to receive permission to exit the country. Beginning March 10th, 2011, Ethiopia will reduce the number of intercountry adoptions by 90%. Check back often for additional updates.
