The adoption program serving black South Africans _ a rarity in South Africa _ is operated in partnership with Bethany Christian Services, one of the largest adoption agencies in the United States. Amid a sharp decline in adoptions of foreign children by Americans, Bethany has been expanding efforts to promote domestic adoptions in countries such as South Africa and Ethiopia.
