Children Awaiting Parents, Inc ( CAP ) is a national, nonprofit 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) organization governed by a volunteer board of directors. For 37 years, we have been dedicated to finding adoptive homes for America's waiting children. CAP's mission is to recruit foster and adoptive families across the United States for children who have been waiting the longest for a family. Our waiting children are often older, minorities, sibling groups who wish to be placed together, or children with emotional, mental and/or physical disabilities - children who are typically categorized as "special needs" or "hardest to place". Friday's Child, a weekly television segment hosted by WHAM TV 13 Associate News Director, Don Alhart, in Rochester, New York, features a local waiting child in an effort to recruit forever families. Faith in Children, is a special adoption recruitment campaign initiated by CAP to reach out to the community through faith-based organizations to identify and recruit permanent families for America's waiting children. HandsOn Hearts: The mentoring program is to provide support services for children in foster care and other at risk youth. A mentor helps a child develop his or her strengths and talents, while providing friendship and encouragement. If you would like more information please contact Pat Burks.
