Making the Case for Adoption Competency with Lisa Maynard & Edna Brown
Many children who are adopted or in guardianship/kinship or foster care experience elevated risks for developmental, physical, emotional, and behavioral challenges because of traumatic life experiences and compromised beginnings. These effects can follow them throughout their life journey. The professionals who serve our children and families often do not have the understanding, knowledge, or skills to meet the challenges, and, in fact, can do more harm than good. Oftentimes, the focus is on addressing behavior through discipline and behavior modification, and not looking to the important “why” of the behaviors. The presenters will discuss the importance of the adoption competency of mental health and child welfare professionals, how to determine whether the therapist with whom your child/family is working actually has competency in this area, and, if not, how to find a truly adoption competent therapist. Suggestions and resources that parents can share with the therapist to enhance their understanding of the core issues of adoption will be provided.
