Adoption Training


The Evan B. Donaldson Adoption Institute - already a nationally recognized leader in research and policy development - is extending its efforts to implement systemic change through the training of adoption professionals with the aim of educating adoptive parents about the issues they - and their children - may face.

The Institute is well known for its research on critical issues in adoption and foster care, and for its high-quality and high-impact initiatives to inform the public and professionals; promote ethical practices; and support legal, policy and practice reforms.

Now we have developed research-based training materials to improve the preparation of adoptive parents, with the goal of helping families succeed.
