While
in China your contact will be Huang Hua (Hannah).
She will take care of all documents, translations, and
will be your liaison with all Chinese officials. Hannah
is an English Professor on the University level and therefore
speaks excellent English. Her
husband, Yu Fang Jun (Frank), is a pediatrician and oversees
the medical exams of the children. You will find Frank and
Hannah to be a wonderful couple who will |
|
make your trip an enjoyable experience.

IAAP
provides adoption services for families wishing to adopt
from China. Parents must be at least 30 years of age. This
is the
requirement of the Chinese government and applies to all
adoptions. Also,
|
 |
| China
requires that at least one parent travel to China to receive
their child, although we encourage both parents to travel
if possible. The trip usually takes about two weeks.
|
lAAP

Program:
Assistance with all USCIS documents.
• We furnish all documents available for your child,
including available medical.
• We provide translations of all Chinese documents.
• Interpreters while in China
• All hotel and airline reservations
• Information on what to pack for you and your child
and on local customs

The
orphanages in China that we work in and support are filled
with many beautiful adoptable children who need a loving
home. Most of the infants available are girls. There are also
older boys and girls available for adoption. For those of you who |
may be considering an
older child for adoption we can put you in touch with families
who have already adopted older children so you can learn
from their experiences.
There are also waiting children in China that are older or who may have special needs. If you are interested in the waiting child program you can click on Waiting Children. Go to the login page and click on "Register a new account". Once logged in go to the "Waiting Children" section. The CCAA sends us a new list of waiting children every 3 to 4 months so please check back often. |
| If
you are adopting an infant, your memories and photographs
will be your child's link to China. Your experience there
will influence your child's attitude toward his/her birth
country, so it is important that you make the experience as
positive as possible and come back with happy memories you
can share as your child grows up. |
