Children impacted by adoption and/or foster care have often experienced early attachment injuries related to loss, abuse, trauma, and/or neglect. There is hope and help, though. Whether you are in the adoption process, have welcomed a child home through adoption, or are loving and serving children through foster care, you are not alone.
Show Hope’s Hope for the Journey Conference (formerly the Empowered to Connect Conference) seeks to encourage and better equip parents and caregivers meeting the everyday needs of children impacted by adoption and/or foster care. The conference remains low-cost, high-impact as Show Hope also works to resource churches, agencies, and other organizations as they support and equip the families, caregivers and the communities they serve. With the busy parents and caregiver in mind, the Hope for the Journey Conference is accessible to this audience with information being practical, succinct, and consumable in its delivery.
Structurally, the Hope for the Journey Conference will include five high-level learning modules based on the foundational principles of Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) along with a fifth teaching component, The Gospel + TBRI. Embedded within each leaning module will be a “Going Deeper” teaching video on a select topic, and also included will be one practical, encouraging “Practical Perspectives” videos featuring the voices of adult adoptees as well as adoptive and foster families.
This is a no charge to you. All foster/adoptive parents, caregivers, teachers and anyone wanting to learn and understand to attend. Lunch and childcare is provided.
The event will be held Saturday, April 6, at Glasgow Evangelical Church, 152 Aberdeen, Glasgow, from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Text Jenn Calkin at 406-654-4682 for any questions.
