Support Groups for Region 2
Support Network Groups are designed to assist resource parents with in-service training, community resource information, peer support, and communication with DHS. Attending on a regular basis is not only a great way to get the emotional and practical support you need to succeed, it's a great way to stay on top of the training requirements you need to fulfill. Some groups serve dinner or snacks; all provide child care with your RSVP. Please contact the facilitator to find out about the topic or confirm your attendance.

Speaker: Caitlynn Land, Post-Adoption Outreach, Oklahoma Human Services
Adoption is a lifelong journey, not just a one-time event. While finalization is a significant milestone, many families find they still need support as they navigate new dynamics, challenges, and questions that arise long after the paperwork is complete. This training explores the importance of post adoption outreach and the ongoing support available to help families thrive.Training Credit: Parents in attendance will earn 2 hours of in-service training credit toward your annual 12-hour requirement. Come connect and learn with other kinship, foster, and adoptive families in Garvin, McClain, and surrounding counties.
