New Jersey Adoption Resource Clearing House

FREE!

As adoptive parents, telling your child their adoption story can be challenging, as you strive to balance openness, sensitivity, and age-appropriate considerations. This session provides guidance on how to navigate this delicate task, exploring approaches for engaging in open discussions about a child’s birth and adoption story throughout each stage of development. Through real-life examples, participants will gain insight on how to create an environment where ongoing conversations become a natural and empowering part of family life, fostering trust, identity formation, and deeper connections within the adoptive family and beyond. This webinar will also be relevant to adoption professionals advising adoptive families on this issue. \

For social workers licensed in the state of New York, it will provide 1 contact hour. Registration is open until the webinar begins.
