Founded in 2001, the Congressional Coalition on Adoption Institute is a US-based non-profit "that works to raise awareness about the needs of children without families and to remove policy barriers that hinder children from knowing the love and support a family provides. CCAI is unique in that each of our programs brings together policymakers and individuals with direct foster care or adoption experience. We have found that when policymakers hear direct experiences of those affected by orphan and child welfare policy, they become engaged in this issue and work to bring about legislative improvements in an effort to ensure each child has their right to a family realized." You can visit the CCAI website at: http://www.ccainstitute.org/.
This website also has a great interactive world map where you can click on various countries and immediately gain information about the current intercountry adoption status of these countries. You can see this map here: http://www.ccainstitute.org/for-members-of-congress-/country-updates-.html.
