The Florence Crittenton League of Lowell, Massachusetts, has been approved to handle international adoptions with countries that observe the Hague Adoption Convention.

The Lowell (Mass.) Sun reported that the accreditation was issued by the Council on Accreditation in New York, which since July 2006 has been the only national accreditor that is recognized by the U.S. State Department.

The Florence Crittenton League also holds accreditation from the Russian Federation, which is required in order to facilitate the adoption of Russian children.
