International Adoption
Seminar |
Overview
Dillon's
International Adoption Seminar is a comprehensive seminar
addressing the needs and adjustments of newly adopted children
and their adoptive families. Each seminar will be from 9:30 a.m.
to 4:00 p.m. and accounts for six (6) certified Hague Adoption
Education hours of pre-adoption education for adoptive families
in process.
Dillon International staff will present information and answer
questions concerning the care of children who will be joining
the family through international adoption. Participants will
explore topics including attachment, grief and loss, the impact
of institutionalization on child development, becoming a
multiracial family, keeping children connected to their heritage
and talking to their child about adoption. They will also have
the opportunity to hear from other adoptive families who will
share their personal adoption stories.
Upon completion of the seminar and submission of the
evaluation form, all families will receive a certificate issued
by Dillon International confirming their adoption education
credits.
