On August 6, 2010 theUS Department of State (DOS) and US Immigration posted a joint statement on their websites announcing that the US is suspending adoptions from Nepal for abandonment cases.The State Department will continue to consider cases where the child referral was made prior to August 6, 2010. They will investigate the background and whether the particular child is eligible for a US orphan visa.
Unfortunately, as a result of the US suspension, Gladney is not able to accept any new families into its Nepal program.
