Foster and Adoptive Parent Advocacy Center (FAPAC)
 

If you are a foster, kinship or adoptive parent for a DC child, The Foster and Adoptive Parent Advocacy Center is here to work for you. FAPAC provides training in advocacy skills to help foster, kinship and adoptive parents to become stronger advocates for the children in their homes and to develop a network of peer advocacy in the foster parent community. We provide individual case advocacy for families and have a systemic advocacy agenda directed exclusively at issues identified by our foster and adoptive parent community.
