We received information about a new group formed by two teenage adoptees called China’s Children International. The girls asked that we spread the word about their new organization: The mission of CCI is to unite people born in China and adopted and raised by families all over the world. CCI hopes to provide an extensive network of support for all of us who share this common beginning. It is a network created by adoptees for adoptees. CCI aims to promote the growing importance and interest in China’s history, culture, and increasingly important relations with people and cultures throughout the world.
The first version of the website has recently been launched: http://chinaschildreninternational.org
