Special Link, Inc. is a
nonprofit adoption information clearinghouse and national linking
network for the
adoption of "harder to place" children, primarily Black and Biracial infants. Special Link has the privilege of bringing together adoption professionals, prospective adoptive couples, birth
mothers, and these very special children.
In its first five years of services, Special Link helped place over 100 babies into loving adoptive homes.
Special Link gives birthmothers the facts about adoption and puts them in touch with a local agency to assist them.
We also hel
p prospective adoptive families of any race understand the joys of adopting across racial and cultural lines. We give them facts that dispel the myths, guidance in the adoption
process, and connect them with a local agency for assistance.
Founded and located in the Upstate of South Carolina, the need is so great that attorneys and couples throughout the U.S. and Canada
are now calling Special Link to help find homes not only for Black and Biracial children, but also for sibling groups and children with special medical needs.
