Voice for International Development and Adoptions

VIDA is a not-for-profit international and domestic adoption agency, founded in 1986. VIDA is HAGUE ACCREDITED for incoming and outgoing adoptions. We place children with families throughout the world. To serve the needs of children who wait or will remain in their home country, VIDA also has international development programs. VIDA was organized in the early 1980s when a dedicated group of professionals in social work, psychology, psychiatry and education convened to plan a placement agency that would emphasize the child’s needs first. The adoption program is designed to remain current with the changing economic and social situations of children. VIDA is licensed in New York State and New Jersey and works cooperatively in all 50 states and many foreign countries. VIDA successfully works with Americans living abroad, foreign nationals, and military families throughout the world.
