Waiting Children in the Dominican Republic

In the Dominican Republic, children ages 2 years to 14 years are waiting for their forever families. Many of these children have special medical needs, are older, or are part of sibling groups. They reside in public or private orphanages throughout the country and face challenges such as poverty and abandonment. The children come from a diverse culture and are of Hispanic, African, or mixed-race heritage. The children receive excellent medical care but need a forever family to give them the individual love and attention they deserve..

Their need for a loving, permanent family is urgent.
