It is good that you were adopted from Haiti. It is good that you want to help Haiti, too. How do you want to help? What skills do you want to volunteer? Are you fluent in Haitian Creole? Do you want to serve as an interpreter? Are you an electrician? Maybe you're in environmental health sciences? There are many professional organizations seeking volunteers with specific skills to travel to Haiti. You can do a little research online to find which organization is looking for people with your skills. Or you can travel with a church group and give a hand helping with construction, Evangelisation, and many other stuffs. Whatever you choose to do, be sure your heart is in it. It takes a special person to to be a volunteer

As a person who is currently in the adoption process, I can tell you that there is a need for people who know the Haitian adoption process inside and out. People who can translate documents to French, and who can act as a liaison between orphanages and the various government agencies by building relationships with the people who work in these offices.
ReplyDeleteThanks for raising awareness on the need for knowledgeable people that would help make the adoption process in Haiti easier. I am not all familiar with the adoption process in Haiti. But, being from Haiti, I can imagine how flawed a system this could be. I hope this awareness will plant a seed in the heart of the "questionner" who's been adopted, or anyone else involved in the adoption process; and that this seed will result in the growth of an improved and flawless adoption system in Haiti.
