"America World was definitely the right choice for us! We found the staff we worked with to be very professional and timely in communication yet relatable to our specific family situation. Our home study coordinator and social worker in Pennsylvania, provided through AWAA, was easy to work with and very helpful. She made the process seem less intimidating and was very knowledgeable in both the international and local state process. We wholeheartedly recommend AWAA!"
