About this event

Prevention and Early Intervention for Adoptive Families: FREE Online Roundtable Discussion

Join us in marking National Adoption Week 2025 with a free roundtable discussion event! This event will bring together an expert panel of parents, social workers, clinicians and researchers to discuss early intervention and prevention for adoptive families.

We will present the results from the Chorus Early Years in Adoption Poll - a survey of adoptive families’ experiences of support in their children’s early years. This will be followed by a panel discussion and audience questions.

The conversations from this event will be used to build a Charter of Need for support for adoptive families with children under five.
