“So You’ve Adopted… Now What?” Workshop in Wolverhampton, West Midlands
Adoption is a life-changing journey, but many families find that the challenges don’t end once the adoption order is finalised. “So You’ve Adopted… Now What?” is a supportive, practical workshop designed to guide new adopters through the first months and years after adoption, helping families feel equipped, confident, and supported.
Even after the legal process is complete, many adoptive families face:
- Accessing a child’s medical history
- Registering with schools or local services
- Applying for passports or official documents
- Supporting a child through identity questions and self-understanding
- Managing trauma-based behaviours and emotional needs
- Navigating feelings of isolation or uncertainty
Our workshop provides reassurance, guidance, and practical strategies so families can confidently navigate life after adoption.
