This group is intended for families that are waiting to adopt or have adopted children from the Lin Xiang Social Welfare Institute, Hunan, China. After receiving our referral in January 2006 we soon realized that there was very little information available about this SWI. Now that we have traveled to China and were able to visit the outside of the orphanage and have lunch with the staff we feel as though we have made a lot of progress in gathering information. We are looking for other families that have traveled this road before and those that will follow. We welcome new members and look forward to building bonds to our children's early beginnings.
