Serving Families Through Faith and Adoption

America World is a Hague-accredited, Christian adoption agency that has been helping families grow through adoption since 1994. We provide international adoption services across all 50 states, placing children from Bulgaria, Colombia, Ecuador, and India.

We’re also licensed to offer both domestic and international home study services in 17 states. Even if you’re not adopting directly through America World, our team can help guide you through the process and connect you with trusted, like-minded partners who share your heart for adoption.

Connect with us to learn how we can serve your family. Also, explore the articles on this page for insights, stories, and resources to support your adoption journey.

Two Easy Ways to Get Started with Adoption:

  • Scenic landscape of a large body of water surrounded by green hills and mountains under an overcast sky.

    1) Fill out a FREE pre-application.

    The pre-application is the best way to quickly determine which of our adoption programs you qualify for. It also helps our agency identify the best path to serve your family.

    2) Connect with America World staff.

    Thanks to technology, we can meet with you no matter where you live!

    Email info@awaa.org or call 703-660-4621 and ask to speak with someone in our intake department.

    You can also arrange a meeting with a member of our intake staff.

    If you would like to arrange a time to ask some questions and learn more about adoption or our agency, please schedule a meeting with our staff. Ideally, a family will complete a pre-application before scheduling a meeting, but that is not a requirement.
