10th Annual South Carolina Adoption Expo/
Families Forever Adoption Fair
January 28, 2012, Greenville SC
February 18, 201, Charleston SC
The Adoption Coalition for Education and Support (ACES) is the co-sponsor of the 10th Annual South Carolina Adoption Expo and the comprehensive adoption resource in SC. Since its inception, ACES has served hundreds of families throughout South Carolina: many of whom began their adoption journey at the Adoption Expo.
In 2008, South Carolina Bar, Young Lawyers Division (YLD) established a project entitled, Families Forever, which focuses on adoption awareness. It was recognized by the American Bar Association as the "Most Outstanding Service Project" in the country offered by Young Lawyers.
In order to better serve South Carolina families, the South Carolina Adoption Coalition for Education and Support (ACES) and the South Carolina Bar Young Lawyers Division (YLD) will be co-hosting adoption fairs in 2012 throughout the state.
By partnering with domestic, international, and public (Department of Social Services), adoption related organizations we increase adoption awareness and help build strong adoptive families.
