Children in Haiti need loving adoptive families
There is likely no other country in the Western Hemisphere where the need for assistance to orphans and vulnerable children is more obvious. Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. 10,000 children are thought to be living on the streets, mostly in Port-au-Prince. An estimated 200,000 children reside in orphanages across the country. In addition, an estimated 250,000 children face abuse as domestic child workers for other Haitian families. Many of these children desperately need assistance. They need safe homes and they need the love that only permanent families can provide.
Holt began accepting children into care in late 2004. Developed in partnership with the Hope for Haiti Foundation, Holt is providing adoption services and program development within a child caring facility built by this private foundation.
Holt’s staff in the U.S. and in Haiti will provide individual assistance to parents through every step of the adoption process.
