Families Are Special, Inc. (FASI) traces its
origins to the common vision of three mental health professionals, Bill and Ann
Barling and Betty Everett. This initial group grew to include an adult adoptee,
several adoptive parents, and several people from the clergy, law and business.
In early 1993 our board of directors was organized and Families Are
Special was formed as a private, nonsectarian, nonprofit agency.
Since our founding we have been involved in placing over 120 children
with Arkansas Families.
Our board and staff are dedicated to providing the
highest quality of professional services. Families Are Special has become
recognized for domestic and international placements.
FASI has been at the forefront in recruiting adoptive families and
sponsoring networking activities for adoptive families.
Our experience has shown that most adoptive
families want to know as much as possible about adoption.
We hope you do too, because we have found that the more adoptive families
know about adoption, the more comfortable they and their adoptive child(ren)
will be. During the course of your
adoption process, if you discover a new resource that is particularly helpful,
please let us know about it so we can share it with others.
We are pleased to be a member of the Child Welfare
League of America, Arkansas Promise and the Arkansas Adoption Association
combined.
