National Adoption Month

Worksheet Description

National Adoption Month is an annual observance in the United States that takes place throughout the month of November. Its primary purpose is to raise awareness about the importance of adoption and to celebrate the countless families that have been formed through the adoption process. This month-long event highlights the adoption of children from foster care and emphasizes the need for finding permanent, loving homes for waiting children.

National Adoption Month also aims to recognize and support the many professionals, social workers, and advocates who work tirelessly to facilitate the adoption process. It provides a platform to share adoption success stories, provide resources for prospective adoptive parents, and address the challenges and misconceptions surrounding adoption. In addition to promoting adoption awareness, the month encourages communities, schools, and organizations to come together to support adoptive families and children in need of permanent homes, fostering a culture of acceptance and love for all families, regardless of their unique paths to parenthood.
