Notice.
AGENCY:
[Public Notice: 9645]
Jkt 238001
The Department of State (the
Department) is the lead Federal agency
for implementation of the 1993 Hague
Convention on Protection of Children
and Co-operation in Respect of
Intercountry Adoption (the Convention),
the Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000
(IAA), and the Intercountry Adoption
Universal Accreditation Act of 2012
(UAA). Among other things, the IAA
and UAA give the Secretary of State
responsibility, by entering into
agreements with one or more qualified
entities and designating such entities as
accrediting entities, for the accreditation
of agencies and approval of persons to
provide adoption services in
intercountry adoptions. This notice is to
inform the public that on July 11, 2016,
the Department entered into an
agreement with the Council on
Accreditation (COA) designating COA
as an accrediting entity (AE) for an
additional five years.
The Memorandum of Agreement
between the U.S. Department of State
Bureau of Consular Affairs and the
Council on Accreditation (2016 MOA)
remains largely consistent with the
terms of the MOA signed on July 12,
2006 by Maura Harty, Assistant
Secretary for Consular Affairs, U.S.
Department of State and signed on July
6, 2006 by Richard Klarberg, President
and Chief Executive Officer, COA.
However, the 2016 MOA has been
updated to reflect enactment of the UAA
and to remove obsolete references,
while further refining the role and
responsibilities of the accrediting entity
and taking into account subsequent
updates to the intercountry adoption
accreditation regulations in 22 CFR part
96. The text of the 2016 MOA is
included in its entirety at the end of this
Notice.

the Federal Information Relay Service at
1–800–877–8339.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department, pursuant to section 202(a)
of the IAA, must enter into an
agreement with at least one qualified
entity and designate it as an accrediting
entity. Accrediting entities may be (1)
nonprofit private entities with expertise
in developing and administering
standards for entities providing child
welfare services; or (2) state adoption
licensing bodies that have expertise in
developing and administering standards
for entities providing child welfare
services and that accredit only agencies
located in that state. Both nonprofit
accrediting entities and state accrediting
entities must meet any other criteria that
the Department may by regulation
establish. COA is a nonprofit private
entity with expertise in developing and
administering standards for entities
providing child welfare services
throughout the United States.
The final rule on accreditation of
agencies and approval of persons (22
CFR part 96) was published in the
Federal Register (71 FR 8064–8066,
February 15, 2006) and became effective
on March 17, 2006. The final rule
establishes the regulatory framework for
the accreditation and approval function
and provides the standards that the
designated accrediting entities will
follow in accrediting or approving
adoption service providers. Under the
UAA, adoption service providers
working with prospective adoptive
parents in non-Convention adoption
cases need to comply with the same
accreditation requirement and standards
that apply in Convention adoption
cases.
Through the Department’s ongoing
monitoring and oversight of COA,
which includes an annual performance
review, the Department observed that
COA’s performance of its duties as an
accrediting entity is in substantial
compliance with the IAA, UAA and
regulations set forth in Title 22 of the
Code of Federal Regulations, part 96.
Therefore, the Department has renewed
the designation of COA as an AE.
