Adoption and Non-Traditional Families in our Schools. This training is developed for school districts and their teachers and staff. This training focuses on teaching school professionals the things they need to know when having an adopted child or a child from a non-traditional family in their class. We talk about assignments, family trees, timelines, brining in a baby picture, trauma, race, resources for the classroom, talking with families, and working with challenges that may come up in an adopted child's life. The Friends of Adoption staff will conduct this training. If you work in a school district and are interested in having us come to speak to your school, or if you are a parent that thinks their school district would benefit from having this training, contact Magen Duffy at 608-782-0710 ext. 223 or Christy Reppe at 715-832-6644.

Friends of Adoption staff are available to present "Adoption and Non-Traditional Families in our Schools" at your school. Contact us at 1-800-227-3002 for more information.
