The National Center on Adoption and Permanency is a unique “one-source” nonprofit organization that provides a broad range of information, resources, consultation and multidisciplinary services  relating to adoption, foster care and child welfare.
NCAP’s mission is not only to achieve permanency for all children – in their families of origin when possible and in new ones when necessary – but also to reshape child welfare policy and practice to enable those children and families to succeed.

Important Note: Our objective is to provide you with the best possible “one-stop” portal for access to information, resources and services in the realms of adoption, foster care and child welfare; to achieve that aim, we will continually be making changes and improvements to this site. In other words, it’s a work in progress. So we invite you to click here to offer suggestions on what other topics or audiences you would like us to add – and anything else we should include.

Meet Our Team

Whether your organization or agency is looking for a speaker, a trainer or a project consultant (or all of the above), NCAP can fill that need with one or more of the most-accomplished professionals in their fields. To learn more about our people and our services, or to inquire about engaging any of our team members, please email apertman@ncap-us.org or call 617-903-0554.
