Please note that there are two agencies using the name CHI. Those are Children's House International and Children's Hope International. Don't confuse the two. It is best to type in the entire name.

CHI- Kaz Program problems

1

We are a CHI waiting family in Kaz program and I agree with the posts above describing the problems with the program. Originally we applied to CHI's China program but got discouraged with the rapidly expanding wait time. We were encouraged to switch to the Kaz program which was billed as a much shorter wait time (10-12 months from submission of dossier). Well our dossier went in Nov 2007 and it is stuck at the MOFA with no word of movement. There are 50 ahead of us with dossiers at the MOE so we are looking at switching agencies. CHI has only started 6 adoptions so far this year in Kaz and none for girls so doing the math it will be forever before our number will get there. My CHI coordinator is blaming changes in Kaz requirements which I can not verify with other agencies that have Kaz programs. I definitely would advise all POP to avoid CHI's Kaz program.

RUN, people, RUN! Run away

RUN, people, RUN!
Run away from CHI Kazakhstan Program as far as you can!
