Join us for a free, in-person event, “What Is Adoption Competency?” to learn about the Center for Adoption Support and Education (C.A.S.E.)’s specialized therapeutic model designed to support children and families impacted by adoption, guardianship, foster, and kinship care.
Grounded in C.A.S.E.’s evidence-based, nationally accredited Training for Adoption Competency (TAC), this model builds on core clinical training to equip professionals with the advanced knowledge and skills needed to address the complex mental health needs of children who are not raised by their biological parents, and the families who care for them.
This is a free event, and lunch will be provided for all attendees.
Additionally, participants will be eligible to receive free Continuing Education (CE) credits approved by the Maryland Board of Social Work Examiners.
Whether you’re a mental health professional, child welfare provider, educator, or part of the adoption, foster, and kinship community, this session will offer valuable insights and practical tools to enhance your ability to grow your adoption competency in supporting families formed through adoption and related care systems.
WHEN: Friday, August 22nd, 11:00am – 1:00pm
WHERE: The Broom Factory – Clarity Conference Room at the Hope and Wellness Healing Center, 3500 Boston St, Suite 432, Baltimore, MD 21224
Registration ends on Tuesday, August 19th at 11:59pm ET
