We are happy to share that lately we are successfully developing our program with prospective adoptive parents who receive fast referrals in the traditional adoption program. Please note that this does not refer to procedures, initiated by prospective adoptive parents, applying for the adoption of waiting children from the MOJ list.
The fast referrals are for new prospective adoptive parents who submit their dossiers for registration with upfront stated readiness to adopt children with family history related to biological parent and/or special needs.
Fast referrals receive also prospective adoptive parents who submits dossiers for the adoption of children above the age of 10 (or sibling groups where at least one of the children is above the age of 10).
Real Examples Include:
1. A family, registered for the adoption of a child with Down Syndrome, ages 0-3 received a referral for a wonderful 2-year-old boy with DS only 1 month after being registered;
2. A family, registered for the adoption of a child at the age 0-6 and consideration list with great tolerance to different special needs received a referral only 3 months after registration; their referral was for a 2-year-old child with the following conditions: low weight at birth; hydrocephalus after shunt installation with a very good result; mild heart malformation, not requiring treatment; surgically treated umbilical hernia; retinopathy; strabismus; delayed physical development and delayed neuro-psychological development;
