It is not a question of ‘if’ your adopted child will connect with birth family, it’s ‘when.’ This training will help participants recognize the benefits for children being aware of their adoption/guardianship story and maintaining connection with their birth families; aware of strategies for maintaining and promoting connections; understand the continuum that exists for connection; know how to negotiate relationships with birth families; recognize the impact on children’s loyalty and identity toward birth parents and parents who have adopted or have guardianship.
