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.
