We believe that every child deserves to grow up in a safe and permanent family. We provide caring, confidential information and support throughout your adoption journey. Our experienced staff understand that adoption planning is a challenging emotional process. We promise to guide you through the steps to help you to arrive at a fully informed plan that best meets your needs. The Adoption Centre of BC is a not for profit, fee for service adoption agency, licensed through the Ministry of Children and Family Development. The Adoption Centre of BC is a program of Kelowna Community Resources, a not for profit organization. The Adoption Centre of BC has been in operation since provincial adoption legislation allowed for the licensing of adoption agencies in our province in 1996. We adhere to the very same adoption legislation as the provincial government. We excel at providing a variety of adoption services for prospective adoptive parents and birth parents around the province.
For over 35 years, the Adoptive Families Association of BC has been dedicated to finding families for children and to providing ground breaking programs that support the entire adoption community. Located in Burnaby, we provide province-wide support and education if you are beginning to think about adoption, if you have decided to adopt, and if you have already had a child or children join your family. We also play a significant role in promoting awareness of the thousands of British Columbia children in the care of the Ministry of Children and Family Development, hundreds of whom are waiting for a family.
