Today, Holt serves children and families around the world in 13 different countries. We work toward our vision by providing individualized, child-focused servic...es in three main program areas: 1. Family Strengthening We believe that children should grow up in the loving care of their families. That’s why our first priority is always to strengthen and preserve struggling families, whenever possible. Through nutritional, financial, health, education and counseling services, we provide the tools and resources families need to grow stable and self-reliant — addressing the root causes of child abandonment, and creating a safe, supportive environment for children to grow and thrive. 2. Orphaned and Vulnerable Children Care: Through our global network of local, on-the-ground experts and in-country partnerships, we ensure that children who have been orphaned, abandoned or separated from their families receive the highest level of care while we work to reunite them with their families or unite them with a loving adoptive family. We do this through a holistic program of medical, nutritional, educational and psychosocial services tailored to fit their individual needs and carried out whenever possible in a nurturing, family-like environment. 3. Adoption Services When adoption is the best option for a child, our local partners first strive to find a domestic adoptive family — giving the child the opportunity to grow up in the country and culture of their birth. When international adoption is the best route to a stable, loving family, our expert team of social workers and adoption professionals works across the U.S. to find the family best suited to care for each child’s unique needs. As part of our commitment to serving adoptees and families, we provide pre-and post-adoption counseling, education, support and resources to ensure lifelong success for both children and their families.
