SUMMARY:[IN-PERSON] AM SESSION: Exploring Complicated Relationships in Foster and Adoptive Families
DESCRIPTION:This in-person event will be held at Community Memorial Hospital in the Pine Meeting Room: 512 Skyline Boulevard\, Cloquet\, Minnesota 55720 \nIf planning to attend the afternoon session as well\, please register for both sessions. Lunch is provided from 12 – 1pm only.  \nIf capacity limit is reached\, please email edu@fosteradoptmn.org to join the waitlist. \nFoster families claim and then relinquish children they love. Children who are adopted change the families who claim them in permanent ways. Blended families often have foster children\, adopted children and birth children. These children all have different experiences of what being part of a family means. Loyalty\, loss\, anger\, trauma and fear create an extremely difficult living situation for everyone in the family home. In addition\, parents and children navigate the concept of ongoing contact\, wondering who the ‘real’ parent is\, and building a new normal for everyone. Time for Q & A will be included. \nDeena McMahon\, MSW\, LICSW is a family and attachment therapist in private practice. Ms. McMahon is often consulted as an expert witness on contentious child welfare cases. She also serves as consultant to numerous state and county child protection agencies\, adoption agencies\, and parent support groups.
