Synopsis

From the bestselling author of Adoption Transitions: A Practical Guide from Matched to Moving In, this is the first book to pick up if you’re considering adoption in the UK. It explains your options and takes you through the different stages from researching agencies, training and assessment, to being matched with a child.

There are chapters on:

• What are adoption agencies looking for?
• Where do I start?
• The different routes to adoption
• Timeframes
• Stage one
• Preparation training
• Learning log ideas
• Stage two
• Thinking about birth families
• Family finding
• Linking and matching

Included are checklists, resources and guidance on how to approach and choose an agency, what information they’ll ask for, preparing for assessment and what’s involved, perspectives on adopting as a single parent or after a birth child, deciding on one child or siblings, early permanence, fostering to adopt, birth family contact, building a support network, adoption leave and pay, approval panel, family finding and matching panel.

It’s also a useful reference for social work students.

Advance readers commented:

This has been extremely useful! It’s really going to help us know what to expect and how to handle the next steps.

The guidance is clear and easy to read as usual.

This helped answer some of my questions on the terminology being used.
