This workshop has been cancelled and will hopefully be rescheduled in Autumn 2020.

This workshop is designed to support parents with the sometime very challenging task of helping adopted children and teenagers develop a good understanding of the truth about their birth.

During the workshop the following areas will be discussed:

  • Challenges of talking to your child or teenager about difficult or absent information
  • Identity development in adopted children and teenagers
  • Life books, boxes and maps
  • Thinking about homeland visits
  • Considering search for birth parents
  • Managing contact with birth parents
  • Issues for separately adopted birth siblings.

Facilitated by Christine Hennessey and Barnardos Post Adoption Staff Cork

Please note - this workshop has been cancelled and will hopefully be rescheduled to Autumn 2020.
