Wherever you are at on your adoption, guardianship, or foster care journey there are resources for you. Here are some resources that address grief, trauma, and basic needs such as clothing and diapers.

As we look at back-to-school, let’s not miss an opportunity to connect with our teachers and administrators regarding the need for adoption awareness and competency in our schools and classrooms. Here are some resources that I ran across to help support this need, as well as a few resources for parents as well!

Where the structure of school used to dictate our day-to-day, we now have entire days at home, new schedules at different day camps, or getting used to routines with alternate caregivers. For kids who come from hard places, this lack of structure and unknowns can alter their individual sense of safety.

The parenting journey (and life, in general!) is best done in community with others, and I hope becoming involved in any of these opportunities helps build your community!

Summer camps can be great for children of all backgrounds. Some camps are even geared specifically for foster children, adopted children, or children with disabilities.
