Intercountry Adoption Is Considered As A Last Resort<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Only if a suitable family is not found in their original country, then we take inter-country adoption into consideration to provide a permanent home for the child. ISSJ provides a wide range of post-adoption consultations (tracing roots, reuniting with relatives, etc.), regardless of whether or not we assisted in the actual adoption. We believe that children should grow up in a warm and loving home, and support adoptions to make that happen. We also place great importance on the counseling of birth parents, to help them explore options other than adoption. We consider international adoption to be a last resort if a suitable adoptive family (adoptive\/foster parents) cannot be found in the child\u2019s country of origin. In doing so, our top priority will be to protect the best interests and rights of the child. Our adoption mediation service is private mediation agencies (private mediation offices) licensed under the Act on the Protection of Children Related to Adoption Mediation by Private Agencies (Adoption Mediation Act).In accordance with the law, we have undergone third-party evaluation.
