First year of family life

PACT’s Strengthening Families Team run a workshop that aims to support families through the ups and downs of early placement.

This virtual event will be both interactive and practical. It will also be a valuable opportunity for you to spend time with other parents who are at a similar stage in their adoption journey.

The day will include;

  • Thinking about what your child has brought to the family
  • The parenting rollercoaster
  • Therapeutic parenting and boundaries
  • Dealing with challenging issues

There will also be a facilitated virtual catch up two weeks later to enable you to maintain the links that you have made.

To book your place, please email adoptionsupport@pactcharity.org
