Adoptive Family Education

In addition to the training required for families in the adoption process, we also offer additional workshops and classes that are a great resource for adoptive families.

Adoption Info Meeting

This meeting is for families considering either domestic or international adoption. You'll learn more about the children in need of families, the requirements for adopting and have all of your questions answered.

TBRI

We hold a regular four-part Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI®) series geared towards parents of children who have experienced early childhood trauma. TBRI is built on the founding principles of connecting, empowering and correcting.

Adoptee & Parent Groups

We regularly hold group sessions for parents and adoptees of all ages. These groups serve as a safe place to discuss adoption-related issues and experiences.

Professional Education

Our experienced, professional staff is dedicated to educating the community and other health and human service professionals about adoption and working with individuals experiencing unplanned pregnancy. To schedule a professional training, contact us at Illinois@holtsunnyridge.org.

Trainings

We can give specialized educational trainings to your hospital staff, pregnancy resource center, school, church pastoral team or other organization.

CEUs

Many of our adoption and parenting workshops offer CEUs to social workers. See our events page for upcoming opportunities and to register for an event near you.

Adoption Info Presentation

Does your church or group want to learn more about domestic or international adoption? We'd love to share about our work and the children who need families.

Counseling and Therapy

Holt-Sunny Ridge offers adoption-competent therapy and counseling to adoptive parents, birth parents, families and adoptees of all ages. These services are available to everyone, whether or not your adoption was facilitated through Holt-Sunny Ridge.
