The Connecticut Council on Adoption is excited to invite our entire membership to our free training on Understanding the Grief and Magical Thinking of Abandonment in the Minds of Children and Adolescents touched by Adoption and Foster Care with presenter Ruth Pearlman, MEd LICSW. 

This forum will be both a follow up and a continuation of our exploration of grief experienced by youth touched by foster care. Ruth joined us in 2023 for a wonderful discussion of the grief and sensory issues experienced by our youth. This forum will review that information as well as add the concept of "Magical Thinking" into our knowledge base. This workshop will explore ways in which we can counter these false beliefs and restore children's sense of self-worth.

If you would like to attend this event and are not a member, sign up is available through our website. If you have questions regarding your membership, please email us a membership@ctadopt.org. Join CCA today!
