STUDY: EXAMINING THE TRANSITION INTO FAMILY LIFE

In collaboration with the International Adoption Clinic, we are pleased to invite you to participate in a new research project that will examine young children's adaptation and development following international adoption. If you would like to participate, please contact Meg Bale via e-mail (balex002@umn.edu) or by telephone at 612-624-9322.

  • Your child will be or was recently adopted internationally
  • You have not yet brought your child home, or you have only had her/him home for < 4 weeks

PURPOSE We want to learn what impact, if any, early life experiences have on the post-adoption lives of internationally adopted children. We also seek to examine the family experiences that help to support the transition into family life.

EXPECTED OUTCOME We hope to identify strategies and develop resources for families on how to best support their internationally adopted child's transition into their family.
