INFORMATIONAL SEMINARS

As part of our effort to communicate the opportunity of international adoptions, we travel several times a year and host a series of free informational workshops. These workshops or seminars are a wonderful opportunity to learn the details and reality of international adoptions. We always have families who have completed their adoptions present to share their experiences and answer your questions. Many of our families have walked in the same shoes as many of you - people who visited our web site to learn more about international adoption.

We greatly encourage you to consider attending a meeting, if possible. The current meeting schedule including directions is listed below. Call our office at 888-797-9900 or email us at adopt@ftia.org with any questions you may have. Please feel free to share this information with anyone you know that may be interested in international adoption. Also, if you can, put a notice about a meeting in your area in your church bulletin, company newsletter, or local media outlet. If you have other ideas about getting the word out, please let us know.

We are privileged to work with adopting parents across the United States and around the world. Although we wish we could hold free Informational Seminars in all 50 states, time and logistics currently limit the areas where we can hold public information seminars to the Midwest.

These informational meetings are free and open to the public. No reservation is required. All you have to do is attend. We hope to see you at one of the meetings below!
