Welcome to Family Care Adoption Services.
We are an independent adoption agency and have been providing adoption services throughout Northern Ireland since 1969.
We work in partnership with all the Health and Social Care Trusts in Northern Ireland to find suitable adoptive parents for children.
There are currently lots of children in Northern Ireland who need a secure and permanent adoptive home.
We are always looking to find new adoptive parents. We are based in Belfast but we assess adopters from all areas of Northern Ireland.
In the past few years we have placed many children with adoptive parents. Some have been single children and some have been part of a sibling group.
The average age of child placed for adoption was 3 years old.
There is no financial cost to applicants to be assessed as an adoptive parent.

We are always delighted to hear from people interested in adoption and you will receive a warm, positive, speedy and professional response to your enquiry.
We have been assessing people to adopt for over 50 years and work with all five local trusts to place children into adoption.
Assessments are comprehensive and thorough and you will usually be ready for Adoption Panel within 6-9 months. There is no cost to applicants who are being assessed to adopt.
When you choose to adopt with us we will help you to find the right child for you, not just locally but from across Northern Ireland.
In the past two years we have placed single children and sibling groups aged between 6 months and 6 years with our approved adopters!
Our professional and experienced social workers will be there to support you through assessment, placement and beyond!
There are children waiting to be adopted in Northern Ireland right now. They need the love and attention of a committed family, and new parents who are fit and healthy and full of life.
If you are an Adopted Adult aged at least 18 years, you have the legal right to access information about yourself before you were adopted.
Almost all children placed for adoption in Northern Ireland have had to be parted from both their birth family and later from foster carers, in order to be matched with you and into their new family.
If you are a birth parent whose child was adopted in the past, Family Care Adoption Services can offer you a supportive service.
