The process of waiting to be matched with a child can be exciting, confusing and frustrating at times. To assist you through this process, the MARE Adoption Navigators are hosting a Waiting Family Forum. Join us and learn exactly what happens to your inquiries after you submit them on the MARE website at www.mare.org; find out what you can do to make the most of your wait time; learn ways to strengthen your inquiries; get tips on how to effectively advocate for your family; and meet other waiting families. 

Families who are approved to adopt and those completing their homestudy are all welcome to attend.

The next Waiting Family Forum will take place on: 

Saturday, September 7, 2019
10:30am-12:30pm

Location:
Jackson Public Library
244 W. Michigan Ave.
Jackson, MI 49201
