Openness in Adoption (Scottsbluff)

About the Event

This workshop is closed. Please see the rest of our calendar for other upcoming Families Forever trainings.

In this workshop we will be presenting information that is biased towards encouraging openness withing the context of adoption. This is done by keeping the child in mind while managing the adult relationships that are present within the adoption constellation. Openness on a continuum is explored with an emphasis on communication within the adoptive family and between all members of the adoption constellation that are supportive and loving towards the adopted person(s). More specifically activities related to structural openness (personal connections between adoptive and birth family members) and communicative openness (focused more on the level of comfort with discussion and knowledge of adoption within the adoptive family). Additional discussion explores actions that can help foster and maintain an open relationship.

This workshop is eligible for CEU’s.

This training will be held in-person at our Scottsbluff office.
