November is Adoption Awareness Month!
This year, the focus is on older youth adoption from foster care. Clearly, we never outgrow the need for family.
In this spirit, we are offering special discounts to help families either explore adopting an older child or better meet the needs of the child they are already parenting.
Adopted: The Identity Project
This course guides parents through a series of adoptee stories giving a unique view into the hearts, minds and souls of the adopted person experience.

Adopting an older child presents a unique set of joy and challenges. From knowing what kind of information is important to have to anticipating potential stumbling blocks to a smooth transition, this course serves as a guide to anyone considering adopting a child older than an infant (whether internationally or from the US public welfare system).
Tough Starts: Parenting Matters
