Playlink
is an organization based in Illinois and established in the year 2000.
We are a playgroup and information exchange for interracial adoptive
families. Most of our children were adopted through an agency based
in Oak Park Illinois. That agency, Adoption
Link specializes primarily in the placement of african american
infants. Therefore, many but not all of the children in our
families are of african american descent. Also, not all of the children
in our group have been adopted through Adoption Link--so, it's not
a requirement to join our group.
Our parents consist of single mothers,
gay and lesbian couples and heterosexual couples.
Our
children range in age from newborns to pre-teens.
Playlink meets for play dates and a discussion group once
a month at various locations throughout the Chicagoland Area. We
exchange information via our meetings, website and email sharing
everything from parenting issues to haircare tips to recipes.
