The program was started in July of 1993 by Diana Revutsky, a Russian language teacher who emigrated to the United States from St. Petersburg in 1979. The program has grown dramatically over the years and Russian Liaison now employs more than 27 staff members in Russia alone. Since our program started, the Russian Liaison has brought hundreds of children to America and provided them with warm, loving homes. Though we specialize in infant adoptions, we provide generous scholarships for all parents who are willing to adopt older children. There is a great need for parents to adopt older children and we strongly encourage them to do so.
Fees are lower for older children and wait times are significantly shorter.
We work closely with all of our parents to make sure the child they adopt is right for them. We are committed to getting to know them as people, and matching them with a child we have spent an equal amount of time with. From the moment you step off the plane, we are with you every step of the way. We provide drivers, interpreters, translators, homestay families, and coordinators for each city and region. You are never alone.
