Did You Know?
Open adoption is a general term that refers to contact between birth and adoptive families. Most domestic infant adoptions today encompass some degree of openness. In several states, open adoption relationships are defined and agreed upon in a legally binding contract. In other states, however, the agreement is an informal one between the parties involved, without the legal underpinnings. Ask your agency or adoption resource which laws will apply to you.

- Recognize the signs of grief in adopted children at different developmental stages
- Identify situations that may trigger grief responses
- Develop strategies for helping children grieve their losses
- Identify resources to help children and families grieve
- Understand when to seek professional assistance
