This is a very fast program! Start to finish is an average of 7 months. Families committing to children in this program, espcially the children at risk of the institution, should be in a financial position to complete the adoption quickly. It is a blessing to be able to adopt so quickly, but leaves little time for major fundraising efforts.
There are hundreds of children with Down syndrome in Ukraine who are legally available for adoption. They range in age from 6 months and up. They face institutionalization at the age of 4, so we work very hard to prevent them from having to endure that hardship.
Reece's Rainbow provides FREE dossier prep and full agency support services to all families adopting independently through our Ukraine program!
