We believe adoption is not just a legal process — it’s a profound emotional journey for both the child and the parent.

KIT for Counselling a Prospective Adoptive Parent is a rigorous, deeply reflective training designed to equip professionals with the understanding, sensitivity, and therapeutic skills needed to walk alongside prospective adoptive parents (PaPs) with care, competence, and trauma-awareness.

This course is ideal for:

• Mental health professionals (therapists, counsellors, psychologists)

• Social workers, community workers, and those working in child welfare

• Adoption counsellors and anyone supporting families through adoption

You will leave this course with a grounded, trauma-informed lens on adoption — so you can be a true support system for families beginning their lifelong journey of building bonds through adoption.
