Each year, November is recognized as National Adoption Awareness Month. All across the
country educators and advocates of adoption, and adoptive families and foster children
host events focusing on adoption related issues. While the primary goal of this theme
historically tends to be on children in foster care, it seems the perfect opportunity to
continue FCC's mission to "CELEBRATE, EDUCATE and ADVOCATE" within our families,
schools, and communities. Below are some links you may find useful. There are some
wonderful ideas for adoptive parents, children, educators, law makers, librarians, etc.
