Russian Adoption / International Adoption of Children in Russia

Building Blocks Adoption Service has been assisting with international adoptions from Russia since its inception in 1997. Our Executive Director and founder of BBAS was blessed through adoption, with her daughter in 1997 from the Russian Federation. Since then Building Blocks has been assisting in the processing of Russian adoptions for many families throughout the United States.

We have been to the orphanages, held the children and see in their eyes that they long for a family like yours. Our mission is to find parents for orphaned children who otherwise have little hope of belonging to a family that will love and teach them throughout their lives.

Parent Eligibility for Russian Adoptions:

• Married couples
• Single females (must be at least 25 years old)
• Both parents must be US citizens
• Clear medical report
• No criminal background
• Age restrictions vary throughout Russia

The Children Available for adoption in Russia:

Infants, toddlers, older children and sibling groups are available for international adoption in Russia. In some cases Russia may provide minimal information about the prospective child prior to family’s travel. However, the amount of referral information that you will receive depends on the region where you will be adopting. Regardless of the region, once you arrive in the country, you will receive complete medical and history on the child. You will also have an opportunity to meet the orphanage doctor and caregivers, who will share the child’s information with you. Most Russian children appear Caucasian, but there are also children of Gypsy and Asian heritage.

Travel to complete an international adoption in Russia:

In order to complete a Russian adoption you will be required to travel just three short trips of 4-7 days. On the first trip adoptive parents will meet their child or children and have the opportunity to meet the orphanage doctor and caregivers. Both parents must travel on the first trip to meet and bond with their child. Both parents must be present for the court hearing, which takes place on your second trip. Only one parent needs to travel on the third trip to bring your little one home.
