Since 1979, Wide Horizons For Children has worked in partnership with Holt Children's Services in Seoul, a Korean social service agency.

We have helped unite more than 3,710 children with their forever families. The children available for adoption in Korea are primarily infants who are well cared for in private foster care. This program is open to families residing in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont, New York and Florida.

For families residing in New Jersey, WHFC offers a parent-initiated program through another agency. The program is open to married couples where both spouses are between the ages of 25-39 at the time of application. For more information, contact Ellie Cochrane at 781.419.0366.
