I know that Canadians have limited adoption options and limitations. It varies by state, but most Canadians cannot adopt a child over 3 years of age. And because of the public health system, they aren't allowed to adopt children with medical issues.

Some Canadian agencies may not have been very clear about the risks that parents were taking with Ukraine. I don't know.

And with some American families, I have seen the adoption agency having a role too.

I don't know any faciliator (but there could be some) who are telling families they can adopt young children.

Personally I have told several people who 100% want to adopt a child < 5 years... I told them to adopt from another country.

The information on adopted children's age is out there. Heck the US government supplies it.
