5th Annual San Antonio Adoption Fair

The fifth annual San Antonio Adoption Fair will host foster care and adoption agencies from across the nation from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 22 at Northern Hills Church, 3703 N. Loop 1604 E, to assist potential parents as they begin the process of adoption.

There are literally hundreds of thousands of children who are orphaned around the world just waiting for forever families. Some wait due to Child Protective Services intervention, others wait due to overwhelming poverty and hardship in their country. Regardless of the reason...  they wait ... hoping that someone will open their home and heart to them.

During the Adoption Fair there will be information available regarding domestic and international adoption, CPS adoption and foster care.

We will have an adoptive-families panel (parents, children and adult adoptees) to discuss adoption experiences and answer any questions guests may have.

“The Heart Gallery” will be there to display portraits of foster children who are legally available for adoption.

In addition, guest speakers will highlight topics on legal rights, the home study process, the various types of adoptions available and other adoption related topics.

This free event is a community awareness project of Adoption Priorities, Inc. It is API's desire and mission to assist families who are seeking adoption information or who are seriously considering changing the life of a child forever.
