Adoption news

There was a statement issued by the government advising families against starting the process for VN. The MOU (adoption agreement bet VN and US) may not be renewed in September. We are not sure when it will be renewed if not in Sept. We are logged in w/ the VN government and are hoping to be able to continue even if the agreement is not renewed. Really nobody knows.

A good number of agencies (including ours) has stopped accepting new applicants for VN. So I do not think the statement will have a huge impact over newbies.

We have been hearing rumblings about this statement for a bit. It was not really new news to us but it is news none the less.

Now for the disgruntled PAP statement----- Where are our referrals? Referrals for our agency stalled out in the fall. We were promised the list would start moving again last month. Did it? NO. We were told Jan was the month. Well it is the last week of the month and no movement. I plan on hanging in there b/c I do like the agency, but as the months drag on I ask myself at what point do you cut your losses and move on? Not planning on moving on anytime soon. I am too tenacious for that.
