The Adoption Option: An Adoption Meet & Greet
Sunday, October 5th, 8:30-11am
Jordan's Furniture
50 Walkers Brook Drive, Reading MA
Get ready for our annual Adoption Meet and Greet, sponsored by our friends at Jordan’s Furniture!
This event is open to any adult interested in learning more about adopting from foster care, as well as families who are currently in the licensing process, children and teens in need of adoptive homes, and their social workers. Whether you're just beginning to explore adoption or are already in the process, this event offers valuable opportunities for everyone.
If you are a “new” family (just starting to learn about adoption from foster care), you will have the opportunity to:
- Learn about the process of adoption and get answers to FAQs (orientations at 9:00am and 9:30am)
- Meet social workers from your area to discuss the licensing process in more detail
- Speak with experienced families who have already adopted
- Learn about the supports available to adoptive families after placement
If you are an “in-process” family (currently in MAPP or further along in the licensing process), you will have the opportunity to:
- Meet social workers from across the state and learn about specific waiting children
- Speak with experienced families who have already adopted
- Learn about the supports available to adoptive families after placement
- Participate in games, arts and crafts, and activities with children and teens in need of adoptive homes ages 5+
We believe "the adoption option" is something every individual and family should consider. With thousands of children and teens in need of adoptive homes, we invite you to join us on Sunday, October 5th, at Jordan's Furniture in Reading, MA, to explore if adoption could be right for you.
Registration will open on September 1st.
We look forward to seeing you there!
