Yes. The prospective adoptive parents will write a letter to the Ministry of Women’s Affairs (the branch of the Ethiopian government that oversees adoptions) requesting permission to adopt a child from Ethiopia. The letter will give information about the adoptive family. The letter will also state why the family wants to adopt a child from Ethiopia and how they will maintain the child’s culture and heritage.
