PEAR recommends that prospective adoptive parents use only those agencies that are accredited under the US Hague Regulations (http://adoption.state.gov/hague_convention/agency_accreditation/agency_search.php) who work with one of the agencies accredited by the Bulgarian Ministry of Justice. We also highly recommend that prospective adoptive parents thoroughly research any agency before signing a contract. A guide to researching agencies can be found on our website: www.pear-now.org, select “Projects & Positions”, scroll to Guide to Researching US Adoption Agencies.
