United States.

Holt meets the needs of children around the world in a diversity of ways, not ­adoption only. In 2010, Holt served ­ 36, 972 children through all Holt programs.

Holt helps families stay ­together whenever possible. Through family preservation and family reunification efforts, 3,671 children remained with their families or were ­reunited with their birth ­families in 2010.

Holt ­ International is a ­ Christian ­organization finding and ­supporting ­permanent, l­oving ­families for children who are ­orphaned, a­ bandoned or s­eparated from ­ families, or at ­serious risk of s­ eparation. This work is an ­expression of God’s c­ ompassion for c­ hildren. Holt is a global leader in providing services and ­advocating for the best interest of c­hildren, ­setting the highest ethical practices.

Holt strives to keep children in their birth countries. Last year, 739 children were placed with families through domestic adoption (not including U.S. domestic placements). Children who are older, have medical conditions, or are part of a sibling group often wait longer to be adopted. 169 of these Waiting Children were placed with adoptive families in 2010. Since Holt’s beginning, over 55

years ago, 40,758 children have been placed by Holt with adoptive families in the United

States.
