This group is for families who adopted children from the Yichang Social Welfare Institute in Yichang City, Hubei Province, People's Republic of China. This group is for families to use as a meeting place in order to keep in touch with other families as our children grow - to keep these 'siblings' connected as they will have so much of their early lives in common. Having that shared history may prove comforting during certain periods of their lives. This group is also a place to share with each other how our children and families are transitioning, growing and adjusting. We can discuss problems, issues, share each other's joys and also be able to learn and share more about the area of China our children are from. Any contact with the orphanage, caregivers, citizens of Yichang or Hubei Province etc. can be shared here. Names, addresses, telephone numbers, email addresses and webpages (with the persons consent) can be exchanged here in order to remain in contact. Hopefully this group will be active and informative and a nice place for our Yichang Family to meet and stay in touch!
