Please note, our bookstore is now closed. We are currently working on an new way to offer our members the best adoption books at great prices, more information to follow.
Welcome to the AFABC online resource centre for pre- and post-adoption information. We hope you find our resource centre useful. It is intended to give families and professionals access to more in-depth information on adoption issues. As this is a new feature for www.bcadoption.com, we will constantly be adding to the information. If you have information you think needs to be included, we'd be happy to hear from you. Please email webmaster@bcadoption.com. Here in the resource centre you will find... Our Library Visit the library online to browse through a searchable database of adoption related books. Members are free to borrow books from our library, and these books can shipped from our offices to anywhere in BC. Are you not yet a member, but interested in these member benefits? Join us today!

Here you will find our searchable articles database — a collection of some of the best adoption articles on a huge range of adoption issues. Search by category or keyword, or simply view a list of all our titles. Keep checking back for more additions. Are you interested in writing articles for our Focus on Adoption magazine? Email your ideas to magazine editor, Siobhan Rowe, at srowe@bcadoption.com. Our Special Needs Database
Our special needs database is meant to be an educational tool. So often we talk or hear about children with special placement needs, but what does this really mean? Our special needs database is designed to touch on some basic information concerning a variety of special needs so as to build the foundation of acceptance and understanding that children with special placement needs require. This resource is by no means intended as a substitute for a doctor's advice or diagnosis. Any concerns you may have with regard to your child's health and development should be discussed with a professional in an appropriate field.
