Playgroups
The Playgroups Program supports adopted Chinese children in the Triangle area and their families. By introducing different aspects of traditional Chinese culture to them, we aim to help the children maintain ties to their native homeland and culture.
If you are a parent of adopted Chinese children, you are welcome to
bring your child to any of our playgroups. Their non-Chinese siblings
are also welcome. To help us prepare better, please RSVP to Lisa (lisa.deng@duke.edu) by the Wednesday before the Playgroup.
Parents can click here for directions to East Campus, West Duke 108B.
If you are a Duke student and would like to volunteer at the playgroup,
please RSVP to Patrick (pat.lang@duke.edu) by the Friday before the Playgroup.
Parents and students can click here for a map of East Campus.
