Thousands of Haitian children were left orphaned by last year's earthquake that left more than 200,000 dead. The BBC's Laura Trevelyan recently visited a ceremony where five adopted Haitian orphans became U.S. citizens.
The citizenship ceremony was held for children adopted by U.S. parents. Two of the Haitian children were adopted by a couple from Brooklyn, who initially feared the children had been killed in the earthquake.
This segment aired on January 11, 2011.
