这个真的是一个big decision，我个人觉得地震中的孤儿大概会被送到各地福利院去，好像专门的收养地震孤儿的机构是没有的。
我知道两家美国人，从国内福利院收养的孩子就是有残疾或疾病的，他们之前也知道，一般是跟国内福利院联系后，收到孩子资料，然后决定要不要领养，在正式领养前会跟孩子有一定接触。一般没有太多选择余地，一次性就完成了。有些是知道孩子有病也收养了，很佩服这些养父母。

真得值得敬佩！
莲妈，我在网上找到的：
随着收养中国孩子家庭的剧增，美国领养中国儿童家庭协会的规模不断扩大，已在美国40多个州拥有分会。据大纽约地区分会的法律顾问詹姆斯·韦弗介绍，美国家庭领养中国孩子并不容易，需要经过美国县、州和联邦政府的层层审查。根据美国各州的规定，当地领养机构须派出专门的社会工作者对申请人进行家访和面谈，对申请人的领养资格进行评估，并提出家庭情况报告。申请人还须提供出生证明、婚姻状况证明、收入证明、就业证明、健康证明和无犯罪记录证明等诸多文件，这些文件和家庭情况报告均须得到县、州和联邦政府的公证，并在被寄往中国之前由中国驻美国有关使、领馆进行认证。韦弗说，为确保被领养的孩子有一个稳定、充满关爱的家庭，以便他们能像正常的孩子一样成长，对申请人进行如此严格的审查是非常必要的。
在申请人通过美国政府的审查后，领养机构把申请人的全部文件寄往中国收养中心（CCAA）。如领养申请得到批准，中国收养中心就会为申请人分派一个孩子，并回寄一份“征求意见书”，包括孩子的体检表和照片。据悉，孩子95％为女婴。通常，申请人对孩子是不能挑选的（年龄段要求一般会得到满足）。如申请人接受分派的孩子，收养中心就会寄出“来华领养通知书”，领养机构接下来即可安排申请人前往中国领养孩子。从准备各种文件、等待申请批准到把孩子领回家，整个过程通常需一年到一年半时间。
据了解，从中国领养一个孩子所需费用在1.5万至2.5万美元之间。其中，一半是去中国收养孩子的花销，包括旅行费用、必要的手续费和交给孤儿院的3000到3500 美元的捐款；余下的一半是准备各种文件的费用和付给当地领养机构的服务费。

如果程序是这么复杂, 费用是这么高. 我宁愿把这2万去助养地震中的孩子,不管是孤儿还是不是孤儿.
这跟花同样的钱去助养很多孩子完全是两回事。
这个政策对国人和外国人是不一样的。
可以国内让人先领了，然后用养子女身份过来。费用，审批会简单很多。
