Colombia

Gladney is excited to offer Colombia as an adoption option. We're committed to finding permanent and loving families for these beautiful children.

Throughout the adoption process, we work closely with the Colombian Institute of Family Welfare (ICBF). The ICBF, located in Bogotá, the capital of Colombia, processes international adoptions and oversees the licensing of private orphanages. Gladney also works with private orphanages (IAPA): Casa de la Madre y El Nino. 

Couples interested in adopting through Gladney’s Colombia Program must meet the following guidelines:

• Married for a minimum of one year
• Each parent must be between 25-45 years old
• Each parent must be 15 years older than the child being adopted
• One parent must be a U.S. citizen
• Both parents required to travel
