July 29: We regret that we are cancelling our plans for our KTA Family Reunion for this coming weekend. Unfortunately, we just did not get enough of a response from everyone to be able to keep our reservation for our meeting location. We will work on plans to get together next summer and try to get dates out to everyone soon. If anyone will be in town on Aug 1st, please feel free to give us a call and we would be happy to arrange to meet up with you at our office at 2012 Broadway Street.

Jan 14: Our Kyrgyzstan adoption program is not accepting new families at this time as Kyrgyzstan has recently stopped processing adoptive families paperwork. U.S. officials are trying to work with the Kyrgyzstan government in an attempt to re-open this program or to allow families with paperwork in-process to finish their adoptions. Please contact our office for further information if you are interested in this program.

Both of these new programs will accept single women or couples and have no restrictions on family size or income.  With the recent addition of our Burkina Faso program, this gives our families 8 countries to choose from when adding that wonderful new child to their family. 

May 15: We are very pleased to announce that we have received our official Certificate Of Accreditation from COA.
