Welcome to Families with Children from
Asia. Founded in 1995, FCA supports adoptive families in the greater
Albany, New York area. FCA's goals include providing socialization
opportunities, cultural activities and information to waiting families.
Our families have adopted
children primarily from China but also from other countries. We are
committed to diversity and welcome all adoptive families, regardless of
origin.
We hope you will visit us often to find out about upcoming
events and to get information on adoption,
cultural resources and more!
Feel free to
contact
us for more information.
