About Our Programs

ABC Adoption Services, Inc started its International Adoption Program in the early winter of 1996 for families wishing to welcome into their hearts and homes children of another culture. The results of the first small group of prospective adoptive parents wishing to adopt internationally were placements from Russia and China.

ABC was the first agency in the Commonwealth of Virginia to become accredited by the Russian Federation.  ABC Adoption offers a program for adoption in China through our Eastern Regional office. Virginia families requesting to adopt from China will be placed in the ABC China Program. 

ABC works in partnership with Carolina Adoption Services in Greensboro, North Carolina, for the placement of children from Russia and the other countries. Through our close partnership, Carolina Adoption Services, Inc. (CAS)/ ABC Adoption Services, Inc., the quality of life has greatly improved for children adopted through our international programs. Individuality and uniqueness of the children’s international culture is respected.  The CAS/ABC agency goal is to unite parents and children in as smooth a transition as possible, to help them grow together into a loving family. CAS has completed adoptions for over 2700 orphans from many international countries.

As a subsidiary, ABC completes homestudies and post adoption services for all international referrals to Carolina Adoption Services for families residing in Virginia. These services allow adoptive families to have a cooperative, one agency relationship from the homestudy to the dossier preparation through post placement services.

CAS endeavors to keep abreast of all recent developments in the countries they service.  The available children range in age from infancy to adolescence.  One gender may be more predominant in some countries; sibling groups are also available.

There are also many children with Special Needs that languish because they are not considered for adoption. There are sibling groups available and children with significant health and developmental challenges waiting for their families. We can help you find the right child to bring into your home.

These children are orphaned or abandoned and are living in either foster homes or orphanages waiting to be adopted by loving families in the United States.  In some countries, when a child/children are accepted by a U.S. family, that child is moved from the orphanage to a foster home to receive one-on-one attention and care before being placed.  Flexibility as to age, sex preference, and the chosen country will often determine the length of wait. We welcome your questions and encourage you to consider adoption from CAS/ABC to fulfill your life and that of a child looking for a real home.
