Who is A Mother's Charm? |

We are an adoption education and advocacy
company started in 2002 by two moms who had just adopted two boys
(best friends) from Russia. See

EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES |
|
What kind of adoption education does
A Mother's Charm offer? |
| |
A Mother’s Charm™ offers
public education on topics that seem the most often needed and the
least often covered. We are in a unique position in that we "have
the ear" of and we "hear from" lots of adoptive parents
from across the country. (After all, we can relate!) We know the
hot buttons and what they really want (and need) to know. We also
know the professionals, so our goal is to find a balance and a way
to communicate the information on befr, during and after adoption
that is clear, concise, and candid.
A Mother’s Charm™ also offers professional education.
We cover topics that don't seem to get much press otherwise and
that, we feel, might make a huge difference in the adoption community.
Our goal is to bring the insight of the adoptive parents (the prospects)
into the view of the professionals. |
|
Does A Mother's Charm offer the classes
"live" ? |
| |
A Mother’s Charm™ offers
private classes, public classes and online classes.
We offer our classes "live" upon request. For
years, we took our classes around the country and we didn't feel
we were reaching enough people. So, we created the online and CD
versions of the classes. Currently, the only "live" classes
that we offer are special event classes at conferences (such as
JCICS) or in locations where organizations have asked us to come
and present the information for their event (orientations, etc).
Organizations: Please contact us (information@motherscharm.org)
for more information about this program.

|
Does A Mother's Charm offer their training
in a distributable format? |
| |
Yes. All of our courses are available
in CD and web formats for individuals to go through in a self-paced
manner. Our courses are also available for organizations to use in
a group format (with live training classes or orientations) . Organizations:
Please contact us (information@motherscharm.org) for more information
about this program. |
|
Does A Mother’s Charm™ need
volunteers? |
| |
ABSOLUTELY, A Mother’s Charm™
needs volunteers for many efforts benefitting the adoption community.
Please contact us if you or your organization would like to be involved
in helping A Mother's Charm make a difference in the lives of orphans
and families. |
|
Does A Mother's Charm offer training
for professionals? |
| |
Yes. Starting in 2005, AMC offeres CEU
classes for adoption professionals. AMC classes are NASW approved
and we are in process of obtaining approval from NBCC. |
|
What services are available for organizations?
|
| |
Organization can benefit from many
of our services. A Mother's Charm offers all of our classes in formats
that allow the organization to teach the class themselves. We send
the organization the materials and instructions on how to offer
the information to the public in the organizations area. We call
this class material "modules". We work with organizations
to customize our education modules to the organizations needs. Organization
can also hire AMC to travel and teach the classes.
A Mother's Charm also offeres consulting services for improving
the educational program of organizations (such as agencies). With
higher required standards of the Hague and many obvious adoption
education needs revealing themselves in the news, it is imperitive
that organizations spend the time beefing up the education provided
to adoptive families.
Organizations: Please contact us (information@motherscharm.org)
