Ethiopia: U.S. Adoption Agency Involved in Child Trafficking
A Minnesota-based adoption agency had its license to work in Ethiopia revoked by the government there, according to a letter posted this week on the U.S. State Department’s website here.
The letter, dated December 8, 2010, says the agency Better Futures Adoption Services (BFAS), “has been involved in child trafficking.” The letter is signed by the director general of the Charities and Society Agency. That agency and the Ministry of Women’s Affairs, which both oversee international adoptions of Ethiopian children, had been “researching” allegations into BFAS activities.
