Honduras Program Updates

We are so blessed to have the opportunity to provide the Honduras program as an option to families desiring to adopt. We are thankful for God’s favor in the work that we do here at America World and are continuing to trust Him as we help families move forward in their adoption processes. Recently our CEO, Brian Luwis, visited our staff in Honduras as well as adoption officials and returned with a very encouraging report regarding positive and productive meetings.

We do consider the Honduras program to still be in a pilot stage as we cautiously move through the process with current families and as we look forward to adoptions being finalized in the future. We covet your prayers for not only our program, but for Honduras adoptions in general, government officials, adoption professionals serving in the country, for families in the process and most of all for the precious children who are waiting for their forever families.

If you or someone you know is interested in adopting from Honduras please feel free to contact our corporate staff at 1 (800) 429-3369 and they will be very glad to answer questions and tell you more about the program. 

Honduras Program Updates

The Honduras program has seen recent developments with many dossiers receiving registration numbers from IHNFA (Honduras' adoption authority) and numerous other families who have begun their adoption process and who are working on building their dossier. IHNFA continues to seek ways to improve their processing and there have been many positive meetings with our staff in Honduras and IHFNA officials. The total adoption process timeframe and referral wait times continue to be unpredictable due to various factors. Families in the program, or who are considering the program, should continue to keep expectations flexible in regards to adoption completion timeframes.

America World is accepting new applications for this program and prospective clients can contact our staff with questions on the program or process. Current clients will continue to receive regular communication and program updates from their Family Coordinator.

Honduras Program

Our Honduras program is still alive and well! We’re excited about the prospect of continued work in Honduras and helping families be matched with children. We have received information regarding the new individuals that are overseeing the adoption process and we know that their intentions are to create a smoother, more efficient process. We certainly continue to pray that the process will continue to see positive changes and many families matched with precious little ones. America World has worked diligently to build a strong professional relationship with the government of Honduras and with the central adoption authority. We are thankful to God for His favor upon us thus far!
