Family Dynamics in Adoption: The Impact on the Adoptive Family of a Special Needs Child with Dr. Richard J. Delaney

Please join MN ADOPT and Dr. Richard J. Delaney, acclaimed author and psychologist, as he uncovers the myths and unrealistic expectations parents often have when adopting a special needs child. To help the adopted child and family adjust and avoid the heartbreak of disruption, it is crucial to examine the impact a child with trauma history has on a family. Delaney offers suggestions for improving communication in order to assimilate to the needs of the child and preserve the relationship between parent and child.
