Conference

Our annual statewide conference provides an opportunity for everyone in the adoption and foster care community to join in celebration of children and youth. Given the challenges facing parents, family members, and child welfare and related professionals today, we sometimes get stuck on the difficulties of meeting our children’s many needs. Our conferences encourage participants to celebrate kids’ strengths, to recognize successes and progress. Nationally recognized plenary speakers and workshop presenters share their knowledge and expertise to help participants gain perspective, increase skills, and learn to appreciate the positives.  In this section, you will find information on this year’s upcoming conference (May 7-8th, 2010), highlights of prior years’ workshops, and an archive of the previous conferences.
