Online Adoption Education Courses and Resources
Tapestry Books
"Education is about understanding the entire process and the inner world of the participants…it is about matching a combination of learning modalities to the learner at those points where they are in need of information to make life-changing decisions.
Local workshops, seminars, counseling, books, DVDs, and online courses are all useful tools, but it is as much about integrating the tools and managing the varied interactions learners have with content, as it is about educators picking the right content. Consistent, well paired material, and professionals trained to manage movement towards defined learning goals, are the ingredients for realistic expectations, and successful education about forming a family through adoption." - Shepard Morrow, President, Tapestry Books
