Families with Children from China
East Tennessee Chapter
As a parent resource network, we provide education and support for families who have adopted from China, are in the process of adopting from China or who are interested in learning more about adoption from China.
Our FCC chapter encompasses the Knoxville and East Tennessee area.
If you have or are adopting a child from China and are not a member, we invite you to join our family.
We strongly encourage families to connect with their local Chinese American communities and the greater adoption community. We actively support and cosponsor events with community organizations, focusing on adoption, cultural and educational opportunities. We also help educate members about parenting adoptive children
