MOWA Changes - making things slower - but probably for the best

Another post from our Agency - 




Dear Families~
Many of you may have heard about MOWA's recent announcement that they will only be completing 5 letters of consent per day. (as compared to up to 40 per day right now) There have been many pieces of information posted and shared online such as:
-The reason for this is that MOWA is short staffed. What they are attempting to do is get approval for hiring more staff.
-This will go into effect on March 7.
-This has already gone into effect.
-MOWA has not said when this will go into effect
-The adoption agencies are scheduling a meeting with MOWA to discuss this. 

....the list could go on and on....The only thing that we are able to confirm at this point is that MOWA did indeed say that they will only be writing 5 letters of consent each day and that there are plans for adoption agencies and MOWA to hold a meeting to discuss this. Please stay tuned for updates as we get them.

Thank you,

Sally, Mary, & Laura
