About The Children
All adoptable children in China have special needs. Some of China’s waiting children have special needs that can be treated or corrected in the U.S. and have not been addressed in the orphanage due to lack of resources. We have waiting children that we are happy to talk to you about! Children are between the ages of 1 and 15 at the time of referral. At this time, 70% of the children currently waiting are boys.
