HOPE or NO HOPE?

"Aging out" is always a phrase that scares advocates.

Children usually age out at the age of 16, but depending on the country it's sometimes 14.

When a child ages out, they are no longer adoptable and have to leave the orphanage.

There are 3 children who are very close to aging out.

****Please feel free to save and share this picture to spread the word!****

They will all be 16 in September and October, and they will then "age out" and no long be adoptable.

They will either get put out on the streets, or more likely, because of their diagnosis of Down syndrome, they will spend the rest.of.their.life in a mental.institution.

When you age out, there is NO HOPE.

These three will soon have NO HOPE.

But they still have time before they age out.

There IS still HOPE left.

But there is NOT much time.

I'm not sure how far along in the process a family has to be before their birthday, but I do know that we need to get them families NOW if they are still going to have HOPE.

So which will it be?

What are we going to give these kids who have done NOTHING to deserve the fate that awaits them?

Which will it be?
