Often we see children who are drug or alcohol exposed and affected. Within 24 hours, and sometimes faster. My staff desires additional education regarding adoption. We conduct educational training sessions on all aspects of adoption, parenting, and other related issues. We conduct workshops for physicians, nurses, social workers, educators, and other professionals, community leaders, students, and support groups, as well as adoptive families, birth families, and adoptees.
Education is the keystone of enlightenment, and only enlightenment can bring about change.
Besides the training you offer, I would like to begin to read more about adoption. The agency has developed a resource library on adoption and related topics and is open for you to take the time to browse and borrow. In addition, our staff would be happy to weed through material with you, identify specific resources that may be beneficial for you and discuss research and information with you.
