- Understand their professional responsibilities to each of the parties.
- Identify questionable practices related to adoption and adoption service providers.
"I really enjoyed this presentation. I retired as the social worker for the perinatal and obstetrics unit in a major hospital working in that department for 15 years. I intend to call the unit tomorrow and ask the manager to have all the social workers and the nursing staff to take this course. Thanks for your help."
- Agnes A. Owens, ACSW, Morning Star Adoption Center
