Title

Florida Adoptions Agency: One Church One Child Adoption Program, Adopt a special needs kid today.

Description

Florida One Church, One Child Adoption & Foster Care Agency. Adopt a child in need today.

One Church One Child operates as a licensed child placing agency in the state of Florida. As an adoption program, One Church, One Child was initially implemented March 1988 to assist the Florida Department of Children and Families. The program has a proven track record and has been instrumental in finding adoptive and foster homes for children, providing awareness, support and training to families, community agencies and organizations over these past years. In accordance with the legislative mandated privatization of child welfare service, One Church, One Child now operates as an independent 501© 3 non-profit service provider.

One Church, One Child recruits families for all children in foster care. The basic philosophy of the statewide program is to "Find at least one family per church to adopt at least one child". One Church, One Child is an inclusive adoption program working with families across all racial and denominational lines.

In 1990, the Florida Legislature passed the One Church, One Child Corporation Act s.409.1755, F.S. This action placed the One Church, One Child (OCOC) program in statute and mandated that a Board of Directors be appointed by the Governor. Board members receive no compensation, but are entitled to receive per diem and travel provided in s.112.061. The 31-board members include two pastors of local churches from each of the Department of Children and Families districts with four members from the region and one member selected at-large.
