Parenting Adopted Teens: End of Year Celebration

Picnic in Central Park or Zoom event T.B.D. *If Zoom event will be held on June 16^th from 6:30-8PM

Our group promotes open discussions with panelists or guests who join each month. We encourage open-ness and always give time for adoptive parents to discuss the topics in the group setting. Mentors who work with the kids participate in discussions and share their experience as adoptees and as mentors within the program. This group is facilitated by Jessica M. Luciere, one of the founding mentors of the Spence Chapin Mentorship program, and an international and transracial adoptee and Mark Lacava, LCSW-R the Chief Officer at Spence- Chapin’s Pre & Post Adoption Services.
