Just wanted to say Rebecca that I've done some research on the El Salvador program and I really like what I see. I'll be interested to follow your progress if you pursue that later.

Hi -

I glance at this board periodically. I am a single mom to one Guat tot. I'm looking at other Latin American options if Guatemala is no longer an option when I'm ready for #2. Do you know what the requirements are for El Salvador?

I've seen you need to be 25-45, and you can be single. But when I read JCICS, it says that adoptions are being processed on a limited basis.

You can read more about what the U.S. says about El Sal adoptions here:
