Attachment Training For Non-Literate Caregivers of Reintegrated Children Examine the impact and outcome of the Attachment Theory Workshop pilots across countries, including Sierra Leone, Haiti, Uganda and more. This workshop is designed specifically for non-literate caregivers of children being reintegrated home, in order to equip parents with the understanding and skill needed to form healthy attachments with their children who have suffered various trauma. Data collection seeks to measure its impact through pre/post survey data and Most Significant Change methodology will be shared as evidence of the efficacy of the workshop and its iterative, collaborative approach.

Reframing the Struggle: Finding Strength When Things Are Hard Foster and adoptive parents face a unique set of challenges and circumstances that are most meaningfully understood and experienced through the lens of God’s truth. This session will help you “reframe” some thinking through those experiences along your journey in a helpful and sustaining way. We’ll explore how to handle our own perceived weaknesses, what to do when we feel like quitting, and how to more deeply understand the spiritual nature of the work we are doing. If you’ve ever found yourself alone with your own thoughts, fears, hopes, concerns, and anxieties along this journey of fostering and adopting, then this workshop is for you. You’ll be encouraged, inspired, and reinvigorated to take your next best steps forward. Presenter: Jason Johnson, CAFO Track: Help for Adoptive & Foster Families
