Events Adoption: Life Story, Love, and Loyalty

December 10 at 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

This workshop combines two NTDC Right Time training themes. The first theme provides an overview of some of the common thoughts and feelings experienced by children and adolescents who have been adopted. Discussion includes strategies that parents can use to support their children and to help them address and make sense of the thoughts and feelings they may be experiencing. In the second NTDC theme, adoptive parents learn how to have on-going conversation with their children about their life story in an open fashion. This theme focuses on how empowering children with the missing pieces of their story can help them build trust in family relationships and can lead to stronger connections with birth family members.

This course will be held online and a link to the class will be sent out ahead of time.
