Intercountry Adoption


Bethany Christian Services has provided Intercountry Adoption Services since 1982. As the nation’s largest adoption and family services agency, we offer expertise gained through our child focused services. There are thousands of children that need forever families and long to be in a loving home. Is God calling you to adopt?

Bethany chooses its international contacts very carefully, and we have placed more than 8,000 international children nationwide. When traveling overseas with a Bethany program, our representatives are with you every step of the way. Through our main Little Rock office and satellite office in Fayetteville we serve the entire state of Arkansas. If you have an interest in international adoption or just want to learn more about it, please request an information packet or complete the online preliminary application preliminary application online (note: this will take you to the National section of Bethany's website). We would be happy to talk with you further.
