The Adoptive Parents Committee (APC) is a non-profit parent
support group comprised of volunteers dedicated to improving
all aspects of adoption and interim (foster) care. APC, the
oldest adoptive parent group in North America, was formed
in 1955 by a small group of people who shared their adoptive
experiences. Today, there are more than 2,600 member families
who belong to one of APC's four chapters: Long Island, New
York City, New Jersey and Hudson Region. Some of our members
are from Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and other states
throughout the country.
