AFFGS Quarterly Education Meeting for 2015- April 19 from 2-4 pm
PLEASE JOIN US TODAY! THERE IS SPACE IN THE CHILDCARE ROOM AND IN THE AUDIENCE FOR THE PANEL DISCUSSION!
Adoptive Friends and Families of Greater Seattle (AFFGS) invites you and your family to join us for our second Quarterly Education Meeting of 2015 -- "Adoptees and Their Identity Development.".
Our panel will be discussing the following:
What experiences and relationships promoted and supported their identity as an adopted individual? Conversely, what experiences or relationships called them to question or hindered their identity development? Who were their allies that helped celebrate joys and supported them during turbulent or challenging times? How did your parents prepare you for questions about adoption, some of which were likely intrusive or inappropriate? What wisdom do they have searching for or building their relationship with first/birth families?
Meeting is at the University Presbyterian Church, graciously donated to AFFGS
Childcare is available for children 1 - 12 years old at a cost of $10 for the first child; $15 for two or more. Please, you MUST preregister for childcare. Space is limited.
Teens 13 and older are welcome to join us in the audience (and tweens if the parent believes appropriate). Teens 13 and older may sign up as helper in the childcare room. To sign up as a helper, please email "payments@affgs.org" and we will send you the details. Plan to arrive 15 minute early (at 1:45 pm) if your teen is signed up to be helper.
