Welcome to One Church, One Child (OCOC) of Florida's website. Browse through the site to read additional information on available adoption services and to find answers to your questions regarding Florida Adoption, Foster Care, Godparenting, Kids Club, etc.

OCOC operates statewide in Florida and is a private, non-profit, faith-based organization that provides adoption related services and works in partnership with the Florida Department of Children and Families and churches. One Church One Child also collaborates with the Community Based Care Lead Agencies and their provider agencies in recruiting and referring families interested in adopting children from Florida's Foster Care System. Note: One Church One Child is not currently a licensed child placement agency.

All of the children in Florida's foster care system are termed special needs. While most of the children in foster care will reunite with family, many will not and will require adoption by a family (married couple or single person). Every child deserves a forever, permanent home and family. You can make a difference - a child is waiting for adoption or foster care in Florida.

One Church, One Child in Florida provides opportunity for everyone to get involved with the important and critical ministry of finding appropriate loving, nurturing, caring families and individuals to help save the children in Florida. Identify your role in helping special needs children below:

• Adoption is for the person(s) who can make a permanent commitment to a child(ren) with special needs.
• Foster Care is for the person(s) who can make a commitment to temporarily care for a child(ren) with special needs.
• Godparenting is for the person(s) who can commit to be faithfully involved in a child(ren) life without the formal legal responsibility.
• Volunteering is for the person(s) who want to provide time supporting the efforts and activities of One Church, One Child at the local or state level on behalf of children with special needs.
• Contributing is for the individual person(s), entities, agencies, corporations, and/or businesses who want to financially support the efforts of One Church, One Child on behalf of children -- all contributions are tax deductible.
