Months after international adoptions were unceremoniously halted, the Russian government has reaccredited seven U.S. adoption agencies, enabling them to resume their work.

"'We believe this to be a substantial step in the direction of the stability of Russian adoption,' reads a statement on the web site of the International Assistance Group, one of the agencies that was reaccredited. The statement appears along with a copy of the agency's new accreditation document from the Education and Science Ministry, dated June 27."

Eighty-one agencies have yet to receive reaccreditation, and it's unclear whether any non-U.S. agencies have been reaccredited either. The list of the U.S. agencies that are now able to operation in Russia appears in an article in the Moscow Times. Read more at TheMoscowTimes.com.

Therapeutic boarding schools are often the best boarding schools for adopted teens because they offer the kind of support and environment that adopted teens need. Find the best boarding schools at BoardingSchoolsInfo.com.
