Mission Statement

Family Care Adoption Services is a Specialist Regional Adoption Agency based in Belfast. We have been working throughout Northern Ireland since we opened in 1969, placing children across the Province with new families and working with adults affected by Adoption. Our Mission is:

• To meet the needs of the most vulnerable children from care by providing permanent and secure new families through adoption

• To provide ongoing support and advice to those children and their families through our Adoption Support Service, for as long as it is needed

• To offer a research, social work counselling and support service to adopted adults and to birth families seeking information
