ASIA's News & Events

At ASIA we strive to keep our families informed on the latest news regarding adoptions, China and Taiwan. We've created this area so that you can take a look at the these late breaking stories and get accurate information directly from ASIA. We know there are many news sources out there, but we try to only publish factual information that has been confirmed directly from the CCAA, the Taiwan Foundation or U.S. Government agencies.

We also provide listings of different local and national events related to ASIA or adoption in general. If you know of an upcoming adoption related event in your area and you'd like to tell others about it, please let us know!
