Webinar: Navigating First Family Connections in Adoption
October 16 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Hosted by The Catalyst Center for California mental health providers seeking continuing education credits.
Navigating the complexities of biological relationships can be a sensitive and challenging process for many adoptees. Adoptees may seek out connections with their first family members for a variety of reasons, and as adoption professionals, it is crucial to provide a safe and supportive space for the exploration of these relationships. Factors such as assessing safety, developing realistic expectations, gauging emotional preparedness, setting boundaries, planning contact, respecting privacy, and building open and honest communication will be discussed.
