Family Resource Center is not currently accepting new applicants into our China program. FRC assisted in the adoption of 9 children in 2008, 8 children in 2009, 0 children in 2010 and 4 children in 2011. To our knowledge, there has been no dissolution of any adoption; all adoptions have remained intact. 23 families are currently awaiting adoption. Updated information is available upon request.

Note: Effective September 2008

Due to the extensive time frame to complete a “healthy child” adoption from China, Family Resource Center is not currently accepting new applications for our China Program. If you interested in adopting a child in China’s Waiting Child Program, please contact Jane Turner, Associate Director at (773) 334-2300 or via email at jturner@f-r-c.org.

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.
