Placement Readiness: Attachment and Bonding
Mandated Adoptive Family Evaluation Training
For adopted children, their attachment bond is broken, sometimes multiple times. A strong positive bond is important in an adoption because it provides the foundation to meet the child’s needs for care, protection, nurturance, consistency and love, which helps facilitate the child’s attachment to the parent.

Placement Readiness: Safe Sleep, Impact of Adoption on The family, and Post Adoption Service Availability
Mandated Adoptive Family Evaluation Training
While evidence has shown that placing a baby in a safe sleep environment every time can dramatically reduce the rate of SIDS and accidental suffocation, many parents and caregivers do not consistently adhere to these practices. We will also discuss how after months or years of anticipating parenthood, the excitement of the actual adoption can give way to a feeling of being “let down” or sadness in some.
