Adoption STAR Hosts Adoption Options Workshop to Promote National Adoption Month 2010 Campaign

Oct. 4, 2010 - PRLog -- Adoption STAR is hosting a workshop entitled Exploring Your Adoption Options on Thursday, November 4, 2010, 6:00 pm at the office of Adoption STAR, 47 Plaza Drive in Williamsville.  Exploring Your Adoption Options is part of the National Adoption Month 2010 Campaign.  The goal of the campaign, “Answering the Call: You Don’t Have to Be Perfect to Be A Perfect Parent,” is to promote awareness of the problem of children waiting for permanent homes and to recruit and retain foster and adoptive parents for these children.  

Exploring Your Adoption Options is a free workshop that will introduce many adoption options including international, private, older child and infant adoptions.

“Adoption STAR needs adoptive families for children in need of adoption planning,” said Susan Kolock, Adoption Supervisor and Family Advocate at Adoption STAR.  “We hope that Exploring Your Adoption Options in conjunction with the National Adoption Month 2010 Campaign will help us reach an increased number of potential adoptive parents with the message that you do not have to be perfect to be a really terrific parent. Consider adoption and give a child something that every child deserves, a permanent, loving home.”

Since 1990, the nation officially has proclaimed November as National Adoption Month to focus attention on the number of children waiting to for permanent homes.
