We are currently reviewing, with the aid of Mexican federal level governemental officials, the changes necessary to allow a more open and "user friendly" process for adopting from Mexico. We are working as a team (lawyers, academics,DIF officials) to prepare a summary of the advantages for the Mexican children and society as a whole. This summary is to be presented to President Fox. We are proposing process changes needed to be implemented to allow the licensing of agencies and the formation of a formal governmental level agency to oversee this facilitation. Our report is due in April and I will report back to the forum as developments occur. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
