Developing Communication Skills

Astrid Dabbeni, Adam Wendt and IRIS Media, Inc.

The online version of this program demonstrates how adoptive parents can communicate openly and honestly with their family members, friends and especially their children.  Parents learn to seize and create opportunities to have healthy discussions about birth parents, international and interracial adoptions, and the many other matters that make their family unique.

There are over 1.5 million adopted children living in the United States, and now the people who are most influential in their lives - their parents - have access to an evidence-based and skill-building program to help them address complex situations.

With this innovative program, participants receive a key code to access 27 minutes of video, and online features such as interactive exercises, printable materials, journal questions and knowledge checks.

• Knowledge Checks - reinforce your learning with a short questionnaire after each module.
