Curry-Lourenco discusses the percentage of orphans adopted by the United States. As of 2010, 16% (1,733) of children come from Eastern Europe. A large number came form Russia. Now that Russia has ceased adoption to the United States, those numbers have dropped significantly. Then I did some research and noticed adoptions have really dropped off in the US since 2008.

Perhaps the recession had some impact, but still mostly staying low.
According to the United Nations, the number of orphans continues to rise. So now the question is what happens to these orphans?
