Maine Children's Home for Little Wanderers Wins Community Award

The Community Service Project of the Year Award is presented annually by the Mid-Maine Chamber of Commerce to an area non- or not-for-profit 501(c)3 or 501(c)6 that enhances the community, provides for the economic well-being of the area and encourages further development in the region.

The award was presented to The Maine Children's Home for Little Wanderers in recognition of their recent Hague Accreditation that establishes safeguards to ensure intercountry adoption occurs in the best interest of children and families, and with the highest levels of integrity and ethics in practice. Only 204 adoption service providers in the United States have achieved Hague Accreditation or Approval through the Council on Accreditation for international adoption.
