FAQ’s for Online Adoption Groups

Which group is appropriate for me?

The Facebook Group  is great for ALL adoptive parents but especially for those with teens and young adults! It’s generally the first Wednesday of the month from October – May. The one exception is that the first group mtg will be on Thursday, September 6th from 12:12:45 pm then we’ll have a zoom discussion from 12:45-1:30 pm.

The ATM Group is for adoptive parents whose teens/young adults have significant, ongoing mental health issues. In this group, we’ll be able to take the time we need to learn, support and get to know each other. It’s twice a month on Wednesdays from 12 Noon – 1:15 pm EST beginning in October and will continue through May, 2023. The first group meeting will be on Wednesday, October 12th.

 

The FB Group only is $525. With the zoom discussion it’s $997. Register for the Facebook / Zoom Group here!

How many families are in each group?

The Facebook Group is typically 5-20 families. The ATM Group tends to be 3-6 families.

The ATM Group is $1500. Access to the Facebook Group and zoom discussion is included!

How do I access the group via Facebook?

When you register I’ll send you a link to request to be invited to the group page. To participate in the meetings, all you have to do is go to the group page. You’ll be able to access replays, or watch throughout the year!How did you decide to run these groups for adoptive parents?

I’ve had the privilege of seeing adoptees through the life cycle for over 20 years. Much of what adoptees say in sessions hasn’t ever been spoken before, let alone to their parents. I don’t want to be the holder of general insight and guidance that adoptive parents wouldn’t otherwise be able to access.

How are groups more helpful than other resources for adoptive parents? 

You do so much for your child! But, these groups are as much for you as they are for them! You deserve to the opportunity to get the guidance, support and insight that you need.
