Everything You Must Know About Colombia International Child Adoption

Colombia International Child Adoption

Many women dream of adopting children from other countries. Are you one of them? If so, you must have some knowledge of international adoption information. First, contact an adoption agency near you. If you are from Florida and planning for international child adoption, you may contact Adoption by Shepherd Care.

Adoption by Shepherd Care (ASC) can be a good choice for international child adoption. Our team has been working with families and children in Colombia for over 25 years. It is ready to listen to you whenever you want us to help. Our agency has a well-established relationship with the Central Authority of Colombia, ICBF. This will help you to complete the adoption process faster.

  1. Contact us. Our Colombia Program team will talk to you and guide you through the adoption process.
  2. Do you have questions about the adoption fees or anything else? Ask them. They will answer all your questions at any time.

  4. Our team will help you apply for I-800A approval through USCIS (US Citizenship and Immigration Services).

Official Statement from
Adoption by Shepherd Care

It has come to our attention that the Hulu series Good American Family contains inaccurate information regarding Adoption by Shepherd Care (ASC) and the adoption of Natalia. We would like to take this opportunity to clarify the facts.

Contrary to what is presented in the documentary, ASC did not initiate any communication or have any involvement with Mr. or Mrs. Barnett in connection to Natalia’s adoption. The legal adoption process for Natalia was completed in the state of New Hampshire, where the original adoptive family resided, and was facilitated through a New Hampshire-based agency—not Adoption by Shepherd Care.

For those seeking further clarification, we encourage you to watch The Curious Case of Natalia Grace, Season 2, Episode 1, which clearly states that Adoption by Shepherd Care was not the agency responsible for facilitating this adoption.

We want to express our respect for all agencies and professionals engaged in this vital work. However, it is essential that accurate information is shared with the public and that the correct entities are acknowledged for their role in any adoption process.

At Adoption by Shepherd Care, we remain steadfast in our mission to place children in safe, loving, and permanent homes. We uphold the highest standards of professionalism, ethical practice, and compassion for the children and families we serve.

We respectfully request that the media and members of the public refrain from further spreading misinformation related to this matter. While we understand the interest in this case, we also urge respect for the privacy and dignity of all individuals involved. Adoption is a deeply personal and emotional journey that must be approached with sensitivity and integrity.

Adoption by Shepherd Care will continue its unwavering commitment to finding loving and permanent placements for children, guided by the principles of honesty, compassion, and respect.
