Hong Kong Adoption Directory

Find an adoption agency placing children from Hong Kong in your state:

Hong Kong's international adoption program is small but stable, and is primarily special needs. Most children available for adoption are five years or older or are younger with physical and/or mental conditions. Single parents are eligible to adopt, but preference is given to single parents with "special parental" skill sets, such as a background in nursing or social work. Hong Kong is a full member of the Hague Adoption Convention. For more information, visit http://adoption.state.gov/country_information/country_specific_info.php?country-select=hong_kong.
