First Steps

First Steps is a six-week program that combines classroom instruction and hands-on learning to promote attachment between a parent and a newly adopted child. Parents will learn about the importance of early life attachment for their child, practical techniques to strengthen attachment, and resources to address possible problems. Classes will alternate between parent instruction and the application of what is learned with their child. For more information you can download a flyer about the group.
