Please join us for our ninth annual Adoption Education Forum: An Afternoon with Katie Naftzger, LICSW. The event is titled The Intersection of Adoption and Teenhood: Strategies and Insights. If you are an adoptive parent, educator, therapist or physician, do not miss this!
Katie Naftzger will lead attendees through the teen years with a wisdom born of her extensive research, her years as a therapist for adopted teens and their families, and her own lived experience as a person who was adopted from Korea. It's a powerful combination! The result is that she is able to provide insights and suggestions that are not only well informed but also very useful in a practical day to day way. She is the author of Parenting in the Eye of the Storm: The Adoptive Parents Guide to Navigating the Teen Years.
Attendees will learn strategies for "unrescuing" adopted teens, setting adoption-sensitive limits, having connected conversations, and helping teens envision their future.
