My staff and I found Spence-Chapin's training very helpful and insightful. We all have a better idea of how to help our clients make a well-informed plan for their infant. I definitely recommend [this program] to every professional who is interested in learning about adoption/options counseling.

“Much of the work we do focuses on dispelling myths and misconceptions about modern adoption practice. Clearing up these false beliefs and biases gives us a chance to improve the perception of adoption and ensure that providers are prepared to speak with their clients and patients in a comprehensive way about their options, including adoption.”
