Parenting Through Adoption 2011
Saturday, March 5, 2011
Wheaton College-Wheaton, IL*

 
Our event will start with a Keynote Address from Adam Pertman - who is a Pulitzer nominee, Executive Director of the Evan B. Donaldson Adoption Institute, and author of the acclaimed "Adoption Nation: How the Adoption Revolution is Transforming Our Families - and America" (updated issue to be published in March 2011). As one of the country’s leading experts on adoption and family issues, Mr. Pertman is widely quoted in the media and has been a guest on many radio and television programs, including "Oprah", "Today", "The View" and "Nightline". He has received numerous awards for his work on behalf of children and families, and we are honored and excited to have him kick off our day!

Mr. Pertmans' Full Bio


Following the Keynote Address, the day will be broken up into four time slots, during which several workshops will run concurrently in each session.  As always, we will have an Exhibitor Hall, which will include agencies and attorneys, as well as services and products for pre and post adoptive families.


Women & Children First Bookstore will be on hand with a wide array of books for purchase; the book & merchandise store will be accessible all day.

Come join us for a day of learning, networking, and obtaining invaluable resources--we hope to see you there!
