Both of these boys are from one of AWAA orphanage partnerships and their files are designated by the CCCWA as special focus files, so a family or a single woman at any stage of the process or just beginning the process is eligible to review these files.

America World has had assessment teams at this orphanage. A family reviewing his file will be able to connect with individuals who have been to his orphanage and who may have additional information about these children and the orphanage. If you would like to learn more about how to make Holden or Arlo a part of your family, please contact AWAA.
