Save the date for our next Waiting & Newly Adoptive Families Group Meeting!

About Waiting Families meetings:

The Waiting and Newly Adoptive Families' (WNAF) Group is an informal gathering aiming to bring together those who are currently in the process of adoption, who are exploring the possibility of adoption, as well as those who have adopted within the last nine months. It is a great opportunity to ask questions to our host team who have been through the process, and to others thinking through similar issues, in a safe environment. The gathering is very interactive and there is plenty of time for questions and answers.

WNAF events are open to :

• members and non-members of AFHK

• families who are in the process of adoption or considering adoption

• families matched within the last nine months

Participants may opt to receive a Certificate of Attendance which will note your participation and the topic of this meeting. We hope this may support an adoption or foster application by demonstrating an ongoing commitment to learning about the needs of parenting a child through adoption or fostering. The certificate will cost HKD30 and be emailed directly to you after you attend the meeting.

For information on considering adoption in Hong Kong go to this link in our resources section on our website:

• This meeting is FREE FOR CURRENT AFHK MEMBERS

• HKD150 for non-members or lapsed members (or pay for membership on registration and attend this event for FREE). Payment is required in advance.

The WNAF team welcomes those registering to send any questions about adoption in advance.  This will help the team plan for this and future events and for creating and sharing resources and information that will better inform and prepare you.  Please send your questions to outreach@afhk.org.hk.  All questions will be acknowledged but we may not have the capacity to reply over email.

If you have any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to email us at outreach@afhk.org.hk. 

As a volunteer organization, we rely on our members' and donors' support to help us organize and offer such events. Please consider donating here:
