Every Child Deserves

The Love Of A Family 

We believe there is no substitute for the care of a family, even in the best of facilities. Over 8 million orphaned children living in institutions are denied love and supported family interactions. Life without a daily warm embrace or compassionate words of affirmation leaves vulnerable children without a firm emotional foundation, especially those deemed to be special needs. Brittany’s Hope believes all children deserve the basic right to grow up in a nurturing family environment and be a part of society.

We work relentlessly on building a bridge to unite children with special needs to families with open hearts to adopt but are burdened by the substantial fees associated with inter-country adoption. Working with our affiliate agencies, we provide financial adoption assistance to make adoptions possible for some of the most high risk-children.

What Are Special Needs?

In the spectrum of international adoption, children with ‘special needs’ are those deemed difficult to place due to their age, physical or mental handicap, and sibling groups. Children with more specialized needs are at a greater risk for dependence- therefore, there are a disproportionate number of children with special needs who are abandoned.

Age
The age limit at which a child is considered to have special needs differs greatly between countries. Typically a child older than five will become a member of a waiting child list.
At-Risk
A child who is currently healthy, could be at-risk of developing learning, emotional, or behavioral disabilities in the future is considered ‘at-risk.’ This includes babies exposed to drugs, abuse, neglect, and those with genetic pre-dispositions to mental illness and physical disabilities.
Disabilities
Disabilities include mental, physical, and emotional limitations which can range from mild to severe. Behavioral issues are part of the emotional group.
Sibling Groups
Often times, siblings are the only family children have in orphanages. Separating them can further compound emotional stress.

The Sims Family

We are Shane and Yanin Sims. Our family consists of our daughter Addyson, our son Max, and our son Sebastien. In 2018, we traveled to China to bring Max home, and we knew then, that our journey with adoption was not done yet! God called us to this path. In 2020, we started the process of adopting our daughter in China, but unfortunately, COVID-19 hit, and China closed its doors. We cannot go get her, but we are still waiting. At the beginning of 2022, we started talking about doing something else, not just waiting for Sophie to come home, so we decided to bring another sweet girl home, and decided to adopt Gianna from Colombia. We cannot wait to bring her home and give her all the love and care she deserves.

The Heuchert Family

Hello! Our names are Mike and Melissa. We have been together as a couple for eleven years now, married nearly eight. Prior to marriage and starting a family, we both traveled extensively. In fact, both of us can trace our desire to adopt back to experiences we had abroad. We feel extremely grateful for what we have been given in life and what to share our many blessings with our daughter, Diya. We were matched with Diya last December and were immediately struck by her warm and curious nature. We are so excited to bring her home and welcome her into our family!
