Lian is living in the HanZhong Social Welfare Institute (SWI) in Sha'anxi Province in central China. (See maps at bottom of page)
The special needs unit is run by a Christian group from Australia and Britain, Caring For China http://www.caringforchina.org/ . The unit, opened in 1997 , is known as Shekinah Shalom (Radiant Glory and Peace). She lives in a family group in the Blue Apartments with 4-5 other children and a caregiver.
When we adopt her, we will receive a scrapbook of photos of her life at the SWI - that's how we got the photo of her with Hailey, who is home with her family already. At CFC's request, we will be bringing water purification tablets with us when we travel. Other parents have taken vitamins, tushie cream or donated to buy fuel for winter heating.
HanZhong is an old city located about 150 miles from the provincial capital, Xi'an. http://chinatravelz.com/china/Shaanxi/Hanzhong/index.asp
