Hague Accreditation

From Children's Hope yesterday: (this is very good news)

Dear China Families,

Children’s Hope International is extremely excited to announce that we have received Hague Accreditation!!!!!!!!!!! In a letter dated December 10, 2008, Richard Klarberg, President and CEO reported that, “I am extremely please to notify you that the Council on Accreditation (COA) has granted Children’s Hope International’s application for Hague Accreditation pursuant to the Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000 (IAA). Your achievement of Hague Accreditation demonstrates your commitment to the children and families you serve both here and abroad.” A formal notification letter, certificate and sample press release will be mailed to Children’s Hope within 2-3 weeks. Thanks to everyone for your prayers and support! Our office in Beijing is aware of this news and will be working directly with the CCAA on various matters including the Waiting Children program. We will also be communicating with all families who need to file an I-800 A to discuss details of this process within the next several weeks. More information about our Hague Accreditation and this process to come!
