What is needed for the preparation of background studies and consents for emigrating U.S. children being adopted by residents of a Convention country (outgoing cases)?
In order to meet accreditation and approval standards relating to child background studies and consents in outgoing cases, an agency or person must take all appropriate measures to ensure that the child background study includes information about the child’s identity, adoptability, background, social environment, family history, medical history (including that of the child’s family), and any special needs of the child.
