Navigating Adoption Experiences Adoptive Parent Panel

Please join Adoptive Families of Houston to spend an evening with a panel of adoptive parents who will share their stories.  

This will be a wonderful opportunity to hear the panelists discuss and answer questions such as:

  • How they were told they were going to become parents
  • How family/friends/classmates treated the news 
  • The different birth family relationships
  • How they felt about the “family tree” assignment in school
  • The impact of nature vs. nurture in their lives
 
There will be Q and A at the end of the program and a group discussion.
 
 
Doors open at 6:30pm for mixing and mingling and includes dinner.  Program begins at 7pm. 
  • Members and guests are both welcome. Admission is included in membership. Non-members are $10/each.
  • Dinner is provided - please indicate any dietary restrictions as you check out to allow us to plan accordingly
  • Childcare including food for the children is available
    • $15/for one child and $8/second and additional children
