China Adoption Referral and Age Statistics

By Ralph Stirling


Welcome to the China Adoption Statistics project. For over a decade we have collected data on China adoptions and published statistics and graphs of referral waiting time and child's age at referral on a weekly basis. In the past year, however, adoptions of non-special needs children from China has plummeted, to the point where it no longer makes since to keep updating the statistics. You may still view the past statistics at the Current Statistics page, but new additions are not being added.

If you wish to read about theories as to why China adoption has changed so drastically in the last year, go to Brian Stuy's Research China site.
