SUMMARY:Preparing Birth and Adoptive Families for Healthy Adoption Relationships
DESCRIPTION:Building healthy relationships between bio/birth families and foster/adoptive families ideally begins long before an adoption occurs\, but various factors can make this difficult or impossible. This workshop explores how education can empower birth families and adoptive families to understand their distinct roles\, rights\, and responsibilities\, laying the groundwork for open and respectful connections after placement. We will explore the facets of open adoption contact and the “homework” that foster and adoptive parents still have to do when contact is not currently safe or accessible. We will discuss the role that technology plays in open adoption and how everyone deserves to set boundaries\, not just the power holders. Finally\, we’ll confront the realities of building trust across socioeconomic and power divides and identify practical ways to create bridges of empathy\, accountability\, and mutual respect that truly honor the child at the center of the adoption constellation.

SUMMARY:Creating a NEW Narrative
DESCRIPTION:What do teens bring to the table? What assets do they have since they have no money? First\, teens need to be seen beyond their needs while in foster care. They need to be viewed as experts in their own right from an asset-based perspective. This session is designed to expose participants to the concept of ‘asset-framing’. Michael facilitates a guided discussion on how to develop a strength-based mindset around teens.

SUMMARY:Understanding Complex Grief and Loss in Foster Care
DESCRIPTION:May is National Foster Care Month and this training was planned with foster youth and foster families in mind! Grief and loss are deeply imbedded in the foster care process. When youth are removed from their family\, they often grieve. Similarly\, when foster families care for youth that eventually leave their home\, they often grieve. This webinar will discuss the emotional processes of grief and loss as they apply to both foster youth and foster families. Case examples will be included that illustrate how grief and loss dynamics present themselves and how understanding foster care grief and loss can help in responding in a supportive and healing manner.
