If you have Indian or Colombian heritage, you may qualify for special adoption programs that allow the adoption of younger or healthier children:

IAN can help confirm eligibility and support the required documentation process. If married, at least one spouse must be a US citizen.

We proudly support:

  • Single women and men in both India and Colombia

"Hannah has been STELLAR! We have just been matched in India and can’t wait to bring her home. IAN has been AWESOME"

Muir Family

India

"IAN was a wonderful agency to work with to adopt my daughter from India. There are so many knowledgeable people working there who patiently walked me through every step of the way and helped navigate an otherwise tricky process. And even more importantly, they were kind, understanding, and compassionate during some of the tougher parts. Now, anytime I hear of someone who's interested in adopting from India, I immediately put them in touch with IAN to learn more!"

Sundaram Family

India

"Like many adoptive parents, we started our journey with hope & excitement, but also feeling nervous and overwhelmed. We came across IAN as one of the agency and gave them a call. There was an instant connection with our coordinator and we felt like we can trust her. In speaking to few others whose reference was shared, we got a similar vibe and so we chose IAN. We found that they were always available to address our concerns and almost immediately. Our emails never went unanswered or poorly answered, nor delayed. We always got more details then what was requested and if there were follow-up/repeated questions, responses were still just as detailed and polite. At every step we had more then enough information and honestly never felt we didn't know what to expect. At times, the process can feel long and we may have felt agitated - and the coordinator still politely supported and addressed our concerns. We would most definitely recommend IAN to anyone and wish them the best. I realize this may seem too good to be true, but after working with them for a couple of years - I wouldn't word it any differently."

Majithia Family

India

"We connected with IAN through a local agency that completed our homestudy. Having been home now for almost 2 years with our adopted daughter from India I can't say enough kind things about IAN. They walked us through the whole process and provided an exceptional experience. Yes it is long and there is alot of paperwork but they helped us through it. We could not have done it without them!! Bethany is awesome and super responsive and helpful. She was a complete blessing to us from day 1 to when we were in India helping every step of the way. Thank you IAN!!"

Springer Family
