Has anyone used Dillon International as their agency for an international adoption?

Question

Husband and I are based in So. California. We are researching international adoptions (specifically Vietnam) and have met with the folks at Dillon. Has anyone had experience with them, good or bad, in an international adoption? I'd appreciate any information you can share.

Answer 1

Check out this website for reviews of adoption agencies completed by adoptive parents. Although I didn't see Dillon International on the list, there are several listed that have reviews of programs in Vietnam. Click on Vietnam to see the reviews, then on the comment sections to see what parents said about the agencies. Since Vietnam is a more recent addition to some agencies, you may wish to select a well-reviewed agency, then see if they have a Vietnamese program.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

A awesome board to check out is...

adoption.com

Lot's of information!

Good-Luck :)

Answer 3

We adopted our children internationally, but our agency does not place children from Vietnam, however, I know several people who've adopted through Dillon Internation and Holt International (both have vietnam programs), and all have great things to say about both agencies.

Holt also has adoption message boards for families adopting from each country they work with, and this may be a good place to ask some questions that you have to other adoptive parents.

Good luck!
