I d on't think that is an international adoption if you are an American citizen. You need a traveling SW but most of the adoption will be done in the US and finalized in the US so it can be done as a straight domestic adoption. I know that there are states that allow children to be placed internationally. I can't recommend a particular SW but I know that I have seen ads for social worker who travel to where you are and do homestudies for folk in exactly your situation. Email and I will give you some references for local attorneys that might have references for getting a homestudy and determining which states allow of of the country placements.
