Every year more than 4000 children in Colombia remain in adoptable status while the family welfare system finds a suitable family to love and care for them. This process ends successfully for about 1100 children a year, the rest remain in institutional care awaiting better parental care. These processes are distributed in all regions of the country and can be expedited with the timely and coordinated reaction and management of all actors involved in the protection of children.

This strategy provides a new opportunity for children with a defined adoptability situation to leave protection institutions and enjoy a family life of their own. To this end, CRAN must mobilize additional human and economic resources in addition to those it already allocates for the care of children under protection. At the same time, the strategy is an opportunity to link interest groups that can be part of the change in the lives of Colombian children.
Adoptable children on the national waiting list whose cases can be expedited are integrated into a suitable family and their right to belong to a family is guaranteed. Identify and assess children and adolescents who are in a situation of adoptability with special needs and characteristics, in order to determine the best strategies for their promotion and family search. Culminate in the adoption of children with special characteristics through the necessary assessments and procedures.
