Adopting from China

Ni Hao! That’s Hello in Mandarin, the official language of China.

Welcome to Family Resource Center’s China Program. We are delighted that you are interested in adopting from China, since we believe that we have one of the best China Adoption Programs available. Since May of 1995, FRC has facilitated the placement of 35 to 40 children each year. We are extremely proud that virtually every family who has adopted through our China program has offered to speak with potential adoptive parents about their experience and to be a reference for this program.

Why Adopt from China?

• The adoption process is highly structured and predictable.
• The fee structure is always pre-determined and provided in detail.
• The available children are typically healthy girls, aged 8 months and older.
• Age guidelines are generous. (married couples aged between 30 and 50; up to age 55 if adopting a child with special medical needs)
• There is a strong and supportive national organization (Families with Children from China).

Why FRC’s China Program?

• Comprehensive trip preparation and planning
• Small group travel (average of 8 families) accompanied by an FRC staff member
  and a member of our own China ground-support team
