Guatemala

Welcome to Children of the World Guatemala program. We have a privilege to work with a reputable attorney in Guatemala City.  All of our children are direct relinquishments and remain in foster homes until adoptive parents pick them up.  Currently, boys and girls are available, but boy referrals seem to arrive quicker.  Due to the fact that we work with an attorney, not orphanages, majority of children are infants, but toddlers may be requested as well.
The current projection is a referral for approved applicants three to four months after their documents are forwarded to Guatemala. The family usually can travel to Guatemala five to six months after they have accepted the referral. Family generally remains in Guatemala for four business days.  In case the adoptive family cannot travel due to personal situation or preferences, adoptive child can be escorted to the United States.
