An important memory of that time was “Operation Babylift”, when almost 400 children were evacuated from Saigon for adoption in the United States during the last few days of the war. In 1989, at the invitation of the Vietnamese government, Holt returned to Vietnam to assist the government in the operation of orphanages and the provision of services to orphan children. Today Holt Vietnam has developed a strong reputation within the child welfare community in Vietnam. Holt continues to provide services to homeless children and at-risk families and maintains three offices in Vietnam - Hanoi in the north, Da Nang in the central part of the country, and outside of Ho Chi Minh City in the southern province of Binh Duong. Because of Holt’s long-term and broad range of programs in Vietnam, it enjoys a strong and long standing relationship with the government authorities responsible for inter-country adoption in Vietnam. Holt’s staff in the U.S. and in Vietnam provide individual assistance to parents through every step of the adoption process and support parents and children as they begin their lives together as a family.
