Considering Colombia-please help

Hi All,

DH and I are looking to start our second adoption. We adopted our son from Guatemala. We are in the research stages of Colombia. Can anyone pm any agencies as I know of nothing about the process in Colombia. We live in Pennsylvania. I would like to start contacting agencies for information. What should I ask and I know that the process is much different than Guatemala.

Costs, length of wait?

Any and all information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Stacy

I too am in Pennsylvania. We adopted an older child from Colombia in October 2003. I will pm you with our agency info. Please also feel free to ask me any specific questions, and I will try to answer them.

Robin - could you PM me as well? We adopted from Guatemala and are considering Columbia in the future. Could you tell me about your experience?

TIA!
