New Jersey Adoption Resource Clearing House

Adoption researchers need to study and respond to adoption trends in order to best help serve children and families. With this in mind, graduate students and recent Ph.D.s with a strong interest in a career involving adoption research are invited to participate in the 2022 Rudd Summer Adoption Research Institute, May 22 – 27, 2022. The week is kicked off with a Welcome Dinner on the evening of Sunday, May 22, and concludes after a group lunch on Friday, May 27.

Registration information: A large portion of the costs will be underwritten by the Rudd Adoption Research Program at UMass Amherst. We are pleased to be able to offer this Institute for $595, which includes 4 1/2 days of sessions, materials, daily lunches, two dinners, and coffee breaks. Applicants will be responsible for their own travel to Amherst and housing. On-campus dorm-style and hotel options will be available.
