The following children are all waiting for a child's most precious right - a permanent family of his or her own. Could yours be that family?

Each country has different requirements for adoptive families. Please check the program page for the country of any child in which you are interested to see if you might qualify to adopt him or her. Our agency works with prospective adoptive parents to ensure that each match is the best possible choice for the child and family alike.

Milhan: September 19th, 2006

Milhan was abandoned and in orphanage care before the earthquake of January 2010. He has a high verbal IQ and enjoys excellent health. He has excellent social skills and many friends. He is a great favorite with the staff and is a much loved child. He'd probably prefer a family with siblings. Milhan is patient and gentle with babies and toddlers, although he prefers to play with children his own age. He's good at taking turns and sharing, and he's equally content leading or participating in an imaginative game. Milhan will make a delightful addition to any family who wants to parent an outgoing, busy little boy with a very bright future.




Guervenson:December 5th,2007
Steeven: June 20th, 2010

Brothers Guervenson and Steeven came into care in August, 2011. Their single mother is living in a tent camp and is unable to provide for their basic needs.

Baby Steeven is quickly gaining strength with better nutrition. He appears to be right on target developmentally. He is a mild-tempered, easy going baby who is attached to his big brother. We think Steeven is a good problem solver. He is very logical putting toys together.

Big brother Guervenson is also even tempered. He's more of a follower in games and activities. He is obedient and unusually patient for his age. Guervenson plays very well with other children and is a well-behaved pupil in our BRESMA kindergarten. He is appropriately shy with new people and comfortable and affectionate with his nannies.

With their resilient, calm temperaments and ability to form healthy attachments, the boys should do very well in any family, with or without other children in the home.



Wisnel:November 5th, 2005
Elina: March 16th, 2007

The dynamic duo! The pictures really do say it all about Elina and Wisnel. This deeply attached sibling pair was raised by both parents, who love them very much. Their economic situation has prompted them make an adoption plan for their children. Both children show the ability to form healthy attachments. They are well-behaved, confident, outgoing and loving.

Elina is a bit of a ham. She's a giggly goofball and a real little chatterbox, demonstrating a very high verbal IQ. She is quite popular with the other little girls at BRESMA.

Brother Wisnel is a bit more reserved than Elina, and often seems amused at her effusiveness. He's mature for his age, but he still participates in all of the games and daily life at BRESMA. His nannies and teachers say that he is a little gentleman.

Both children are visibly relieved to be in a safe place with adequate nutrition. Their symptoms of protein deprivation are clearing up quickly. They have adapted very well, and are looking forward to a forever family of their own. Wisnel and Elina would do well in any family that values good conversation and education.



Wesly:August 7th, 2010

Baby Wesly came into care in October. He is recovering his strength with better nutrition and medical care, but he is still quite thin. His biological family has several other children and cannot care for all of them.



Barbarah: August 13th, 2011

Barbarah is a healthy, happy baby girl. Her single biological mother has two other small children and simply cannot meet Barbarah's basic survival needs. Barbarah shows healthy attachment to our nannies. She is a chubby, content, beloved baby girl who would thrive in any qualified family.





Djénica: August31st, 2008
Djénie: September 21st, 2010

Sisters Djénica and Djénie (pronounced 'Jennika' and 'Jennie') are deeply attached, shy, tender little girls. Their biological family cannot care for them and has chosen an adoption plan. They prefer to play with each other, although Djénica interacts well with other little children at the orphanage.

The girls are well behaved and obedient. They need a family to help coax them to express themselves and enjoy a bit of mischief on occasion. We'd be happy to see them in a family with older siblings or nearby relatives to help spoil these two lovely Haitian princesses.



Genèse: August 11th, 2007

If Genèse looks like a pistol in her photos, it's because she is one! Intelligent, chatty, and outgoing, Genèse likes to be the boss in games. She has a strong will and a cheerful disposition. She seems to have a high verbal I.Q. and is a resilient child. She plays well with others and is good with toddlers.

The right family for Genèse will appreciate her strong personality and intelligence, and won't mind being questioned on why she can't have candy for lunch. She'll do just fine with siblings so long as there is not another dominant child of the same age.



Berlino: April 20th, 2010
Berlino is a typical toddler boy. He wants to get into, explore, and dis-assemble everything. He has adjusted very well to life in the orphanage, where he gets along with others as well as can be expected for a little guy his age. He will do well in any family.

Democratic Republic of Congo
Congolese referrals are made directly by the orphanage director in cooperation with our program coordinator based upon firsthand knowledge of each child's needs and personality. The Democratic Republic of Congo program is fairly flexible in terms of requirements for adoptive families. Please visit our Democratic Republic of Congo adoption program page to learn more about the pilot program.


Prince Anglin: approximately November 29th, 2011
This baby was abandoned on the street and our partners in Congo received him from Social Affairs. His medical testing is complete. Prince appears to be a normal, healthy, infant. He had no name so our Congolese head of staff named him Prince Anglin. Prince is a common name in the D.R. Congo, and Anglin is the last name of our Program Director in Congo.


Liberia
Liberian referrals are made directly by the orphanage director in cooperation with our program coordinator based upon firsthand knowledge of each child's needs and personality. The Liberia program is very flexible in terms of requirements for adoptive families. Please visit our Liberia adoption program page to learn more about the program.

Jefferson: Three or four years old
Little Jefferson was abandoned at a hospital in Monrovia. Little to nothing is known about his history. We believe him to be about 3-4 years old but he is small for his age. He has been with AOH for 2 years now. He has moderate-severe CP and startles easily. He does respond to and know his care givers. He likes music and rolls from side to side. He is a sweet child.

Faith: January 31st, 2009
We believe that Faith has Cerebral Palsy. Her muscles are spastic, and she cannot sit or stand independently. However,her caretakers believe that Faith has excellent potential. They believe at this time that she has no mental disabilities. Faith cannot speak, but she can nod and shake her head in response to questions. She is very popular with the orphanage staff because of her joyful temperament and because there is such hope for her future.

Faith needs a family who will be her constant advocate and help her reach her full potential. She will need extensive physical and speech therapy to help her interact with her world. She has tested negative for HIV and Hep. B.

United States - Mending Hearts Program
All Blessings International offers a specialized service for adoptive families in crisis. Our staff works hard to find resources to keep adoptive families together, but there are times when a dissolution or disruption is warranted. The children in the Mending Hearts program need flexible, resourceful, and committed families to adopt them and meet their needs, which range from moderate to serious. The program is affordable and extremely flexible as to criteria for adoptive parents. Please visit our Mending Hearts adoption program page to learn more about the program.


ER is a beautiful 7 year old girl originally adopted from China currently residing in the Mid-western part if the United States with her adoptive family and 4 siblings (non-biological). She has been residing in the United States since 2008, she is a U.S. Citizen. ER likes to color, write and to participate in other artistic activities. She enjoys attending live events or plays and does well in semi-structured environments. ER does have the ability to be charming and social.

ER was abandoned at 11 months of age and spent time in an Orphanage until she was adopted by her current adoptive family at age 4. There are reports of ER being physically and emotionally abused while in the orphanage which has had a direct impact on her current functioning. ER has been diagnosed with ADHD, PTSD, RAD, Disruptive Behavior and Mood Disorder. She is currently in counseling and takes medication regularly which has been successful in some environments.

Her adoptive parents have been very invested in ensuring that ER’s needs are met. They have gone above and beyond in trying to provide ER with the various interventions that she needs to thrive in their home, however it does not seem to be the best environment for her. It has been recommended that ER be placed with a new adoptive family where she can heal and continue her therapeutic services.

ER is currently taking Vyvanse for ADHD. She had a complete Neuropsychological evaluation completed in August of 2011 which will be available for review. She continues to have major outbursts and destructive tantrums on a daily basis which have been difficult for her family to manage. She had a difficult start with her new adoptive family and it is believed that she is in need of a new family for a fresh start to heal.

ER is currently in the 1st grade. She does have an active IEP in place and receives special assistance in all core subjects, math, reading and phonics. She is currently in public school. She is reported to learn best by hands on learning.

We are looking for a faith based family who will provide ER with continued therapeutic services, love and patience to help her through her healing. It would be best for families to have experience working with previously institutionalized children who have experienced abuse and neglect. ER would do best as the youngest or only child in the home. ER responds better to older children as she has the ability to be a bully to children younger than her. ER deserves the opportunity to transition into a family environment in which she is able to thrive, heal and meet her full potential. Preference will be given to two parent family households, due to ER’s needs and the family’s preference, however we will consider strong, experienced single parent female applicants on a case by case basis. We are looking for home study ready families only at this time, or families who are able to update a previously completed home study very quickly. ER’s family is currently operating in a space of crisis which will require that once a successful potential adoptive family is matched they are capable of moving fairly quickly. Inquiring families must first register with our program before any additional case information is released beyond what is currently posted online. If you would like to learn more about ER and her situation please contact via email only at erica@allblessings.org

S.O. has been told and understands that she will be adopted by a new family.

Her family loves her very much and are trying to do what is best for SO. They feel S.O. would do best in a small religious family where S.O. would be the youngest or only child so that the family could provide her with the adequate love, attention, and care that she deserves. S.O. has so many strong skills and needs a family that can help her thrive.

If you would like to learn more about S.O. and her situation please contact via email only at danielle@allblessings.org. Inquiring families must first register with our program before any additional case information is released beyond what is currently posted online.
