MEMBERSHIP INVITATION

If you are an adoptive parent of a child from China or you plan to adopt, we want to invite you to join Families with Children from China-Houston.  FCC-Houston is one of many independent FCC chapters that have developed in cities across the U.S. to provide information, educational and cultural programs, and informal support for families with adopted Chinese children.

FCC-Houston organizes a wide variety of special events for parents and families throughout the year.  These range from our annual celebration of the Chinese New Year to get-togethers at many Houston area attractions of interest to our members.  We also have programs featuring films and guest speakers on topics related to adoption, child development, health, and other areas.  For people in the waiting stages of adopting from China, we hold a series of seminars that give prospective parents of Chinese children an opportunity to meet FCC-Houston parents who have recently returned home with their new child.  FCC-Houston is also the springboard for a number of play groups in the Houston area.  These are informal monthly gatherings at parks in different areas of the city.  The play groups offer a great way for our children to make friends and maintain connections with other children adopted from China.  

The cost of FCC-Houston membership is currently just $25.  Members receive our newsletters, which announce and describe all our events.  Members also may subscribe to our FCC-H email list, destined to replace our paper communications.  Whether you want to get the details on upcoming FCC-H programs, share information on area resources, or discuss anything else of interest to our members, the list serve provides a wonderful convenience.

Through all our programs, FCC-Houston helps promote the well being of our children and our families.  We are a growing organization, and we’re interested in addressing the varied needs of our expanding and increasingly diverse membership.  We'd be delighted to have you join us.  Please print and complete the membership form below and mail it with your check to the FCC-Houston membership director, whose name and address are on the form.

We hope to see you at an upcoming FCC-Houston event!

Sincerely,

The FCC-Houston Board of Directors
