Description

We all understand that reunification is the goal of foster care, but when reunification is not possible, children and teens need adoptive and guardianship families who can provide them with permanency. The path to adoption finalization and guardianship can be confusing and it’s important for resource families to understand the process. Join us as we explore the ins and outs of adoption and guardianship, including timeframes, court hearings, mediation, post-adoption contact agreements, navigating ongoing contact with birth families, adoption and guardianship subsidies, and important resources.
