Adoption 101: Where Do I Begin? Workshop
Considering becoming a parent or expanding a family through adoption can be both exciting and overwhelming. There is so much information available about adoption that people often ask, “Where do I begin?” In celebration of our 35th Anniversary, the December workshop will be free for all attendees.

The workshop is designed to help prospective adoptive parents prepare, build confidence, and make a decision about the best route for their adoption journey.
