National adoption
awareness month
More lhan 125,000 children wail
for adoption in the United States on
any given day. But according to
many child welfare professionals,
adoption remains one of the least
understood child services.
Tulsa Adoption Advocates, a
group of local adoption agencies,
hopes to increase public understand-
ing of adoption during National
Adoption Awareness Month.
TAA will host a three-part series
of public seminars and information
fairs throughout November, cover-
ing a variety of topics including
infant adoption, special needs adop-
tions and the rights of adoptive and
birth parents. These events are co-
sponsored by Children’s Medical
Center.
Each event will be held at Child-
ren’s Medical Center Auditorium,
5300 E. Skclly Drive. Seminars will
start at 7 till 8:30 p.m., Nov. 17.
The seminar for Nov. 17 will
include a panel of adoptive parents
and adult adoptees discussing their
experiences. Each seminar will be
accompanied by informative exhi-
bits from local adoption agencies
and other social service resources.
Mary Lee Ingram, MSW, and
Tony Irby, ACFW, coordinators of
the information series, hope parti-
cipants will gain a broad view of
adoption.
“With the recent media focus on
failed and improperly handled adop-
tions,” said Ingram, “I think their is a
real need for a balanced view.
People will come away from our
seminars with a clear picture of
infant adoptions, special needs and
older child adoptioas and what
adoptive families can do to ensure
their adoption is a lasting, healthy
bond between parent and child.”
More information about these
seminars can be obtained by calling
Mary Ingram at Tulsa Adoption
Advocates.
