Kazakhstan AdoptionKazakhstan adoption is similar to an international adoption from Russia: the children are either abandoned or removed from their homes and placed in orphanages. Not all children in the orphanages are eligible for adoption because some are placed there temporarily by their parents for a variety of reasons. The children in Kazakhstan are thought to be a little healthier and less likely to be affected by Fetal Alcohol Syndrome/Effect due to the Muslim population, although they are not strict adherents to religious edicts (there are no statistics that I am aware of concerning this, although I do have information about a generally lower alcohol consumption rate in Kazakhstan vs. Russian Federation). The orphanages are generally good, many with doctors, music programs, and good caregiver ratios. Infants may be adopted as young as six months old. The children are usually either ethnically Kazakh or Russian, although there are other ethnic backgrounds and mixes as well.
