USA partners
Our USA partners are Hague accredited, which means that besides complying with national law and legislation and the specific laws and legislation of the state they work in, they also work within the framework provided by the Hague Adoption Convention.
The USA partners provide biological parents with options counseling services concerning their children, when the parents are unable, do not want, or are not allowed to raise them, but want to be actively involved in exploring their options, and – if adoption turns out to be the best option – helping them to select the intended family.
Many of the birthmothers who contact them decide in the end to raise their child themselves, or are able to do this with the help of relatives, or with extra support. .

More Hague accredited USA contacts might be added in the future.
During our intake procedure we pay more attention to the USA collaboration partners, and we explain their procedures, fees, and organization, as well as what you can expect from them. The USA collaboration partners also come to the Netherlands every year for a Meet & Greet with PAPs who want to explore their options. Check our Event Schedule regularly for upcoming event dates!
