"Supporting The Right of Every Abandoned Child to be Adopted"
Right now, there are 39,000 abandoned children in Romanian institutions & 9,000 additional children are added to this unacceptable number EVERY YEAR!
Speak out for these abandoned children with little hope of having a permanent family because current Romanian laws ban international adoption!
We support efforts to revise Romania's ill-advised "child welfare" legislation. This legislation, which was passed in June 2004, not only bans international adoption and severely limits domestic adoption but also limits private charitable relief work among abandoned children. Before the law banning international adoption was passed, 1,092 families were in the process of adopting children. These cases were legally filed, criteria & guidelines met & yet these children have been refused the right to join their permanent families. We invite YOU to speak out for the children in Romania who don’t have permanent families by signing this petition. petitie tekenenpetitie tekenen
