Many prospective adoptive parents have expressed
concerns over the DOS list of Hague Accredited and Approved Entities that was published on Friday, February 29, 2008. The published list is substantially shorter than the list of agencies that applied for accreditation. According to the DOS, the accrediting agencies, COA and Colorado, will continue to review applications on a daily and weekly basis and new agencies can be accredited at any time. All agencies that are accredited before April 1 will be able to work on Hague Convention cases from the day the Convention enters into force for the U.S. Many of the agencies that applied by the November 2006 deadline are pending and may very well be accredited in the short or medium term if the accrediting entity determines they have met the accreditation standards. If you know that your agency applied for accreditation but they do not appear on the DOS list - don't panic. Contact your agency or the accrediting entity and ask for their current status. A list of agencies that were denied accreditation should be published by the DOS around July 1, 2008. Contact Information for COA: Phone: (212) 797-3000 FAX: (212) 797-1428 120 Wall Street, 11Floor New York, NY 10005 Richard Klarberg President/ Chief Executive Officer rklarberg@coanet.org Jayne Schmidt Hague Project Manager jschmidt@coanet.org Contact Information for Colorado: Marva Livingston Hammons Executive Director Department of Human Services State of Colorado 1575 Sherman Street Denver, CO 80203-1714 Tel: 303.866.5700 Fax: 303.866.4047 Gina Pollock
