About building families through adoption
Building families through adoption aims to prepare potential adoptive parents for the realities and joys of adoption. All potential adoptive parents are welcome but it is particularly valuable for persons wanting to adopt from Alaska’s foster care system. This course covers adoption expectations, birth parents, talking to children about adoption, understanding grief and loss, attachment and trauma-informed parenting, and Identity.
