NEW YORK — The number of foreign children adopted by U.S. parents dropped by 9
The department's report for the 2014 fiscal year shows 6,441 adoptions from abroad, down from 7,094 in 2013 and about 74
Trish Maskew, chief of the State Department's Adoption Division, said it was difficult to predict when the number of foreign adoptions might start to rise again.
As usual, China accounted for the most children adopted in the U.S., but its total of 2,040 was far below the peak of 7,903 in 2005.
