Both Ends Burning

Adoption policy has become a frustration for me.  Adoption policy worldwide varies.  Here in Haiti those looking to adopt must meet these requirements:
-age 35
-less then 2 biological children
-married for 10 years (if married)

Yet, if families looked to another country for adopting the policy would be completely different.  I definitely see the great need for policy, yet wish that the policy could be more uniformed. 

Chante (a staff member at COTP) shared Both Ends Burning with me.  This is an organization setup to "to promote a culture of adoption and to implement policy change."

I decided to sign the petition.  This petition will allow the organization Both Ends Burning to meet with the United Nations to discuss this issue.
