Don't Let This Opportunity Wait - Enter the World of Your Child's Heritage!

Visit Haiti Tour
November 19-26, 2011

Dillon International is pleased to offer the Visit Haiti Tour this year. Come spend the week of Thanksgiving exploring the country of your child’s birth, beautiful Haiti. One adoptee who went on the trip shared, “I feel at home in this country.”

The tour is open to all Haiti adoptive families and adoptees, regardless of placement agency. It is also open to those who simply want to visit Haiti but don’t have an adoption connection. The tour leader is Rebecca Hackworth, LCSW. She is an experienced adoption social worker who has made numerous trips to Haiti including our inaugural Visit Haiti Tour. She also has a personal connection to Haiti, as she has two daughters from there.

The trip will consist of visiting the children in the orphanages, schools and the hospital run by the Foundation for the Children of Haiti, sightseeing in Port-au-Prince, a trip to the mountains, a Haitian dance lesson, wrapping Christmas presents for the children and more!

Adoption search services are available on the trip, if desired. The adoptee may opt to review his or her adoption file, meet caregivers (if possible) and meet birth parents (if possible). The birth search process should be initiated as soon as possible prior to traveling to allow for ample time to research the case.

One previous participant remarked, “It was a very good trip. Thank you for providing our family this opportunity.”

Hope you can join us on this trip of a lifetime!
