“FAPAC has a deep understanding of how the system works and a deep grasp on the lives of those in the community doing the work. FAPAC has great credibility and status in terms of really servicing foster and adoptive families in a unique way. Having a place we can go for support, or to just call up and say owe don’t’ know what the heck we’re doing is invaluable.“ – Adoptive Family
