Most forks are drilled in the crown and will accept a caliper brake. If your fork isn't drilled, but is 20mm or 3/4" from the bottom to the crown race, you can drill it yourself. Just be careful to drill squarely.

Before doing so, measure vertically from where the hole will be (or is) to the rim and make sure you can find a caliper with appropriate caliper.
