November is Adoption Awareness Month. National Adoption Awareness Month is celebrated in November to raise awareness of the need for adoptive families for children and youth in foster care. The month is also a time to educate, inspire, and mobilize individuals, families, and communities to support adoption. For many the trauma children experience when going to foster care or being adopted has long range effects.

In the past ten years of being involved in foster care, many friends have talked to me about wanting to adopt or foster, and feeling confused about the differences or how it all works. The reality is that a lot of people think about family building to support children who need a parent, but they never get around to doing it. However, fostering or adoption is not something that will just 'happen' - if you want to be that parent, you do need to figure out how to make it happen proactively 🤓 📝 This event with Coram and Now Foster is a good first step if you think you might want to foster or adopt one day, and will give you all the basic info to explore more in the future or talk to your family about it. Register here and share it with your partners, colleagues friends and other significant others who may want to learn more too: https://lnkd.in/eKzTC8tF

November is National Adoption Awareness Month! Over the next few weeks, I’ll celebrate by posting about some of the lesser-known or misunderstood aspects of adoption. Let’s start by recognizing the child’s role in adoption. At CONCERN - Professional Services for Children, Youth and Families, children are active participants in the adoption process. Their work begins in the Child Preparation phase, where our staff prepares them to make the transition from foster care to their forever home. The kids work through complex emotions including grief and loss, abandonment, identity, control, loyalty, attachment, and shame. We give them a voice in the process, honor their past, create connections, answer questions, and prepare for their future. We also employ a process called Child Specific Recruitment (CSR), which involves creating a plan for each child and working with prospective families to ensure appropriate matches. Children are asked for their input and help to create flyers and videos that highlight their strengths. In each of these steps, youth play an active role in finding their forever home. Adoption shouldn't be something that "happens" to a child. It should be an experience they help to facilitate.

Join us in honoring the families, social workers, and advocates who make this possible, one connection at a time. 📖 Read Tara’s story below. -- #Nationaladoptionmonth #foreverfamily #adoption
