Spring Teen and Tween Adoptee Identity Group
Adolescence is a tumultuous time; being adopted adds another layer of complexity. The Northern Post-Adoption Consortium (NPAC) is pleased to offer a FREE 6-week group for teen and tween adoptees in 6th – 8th grades who reside in the Northern region of Virginia* to focus on connecting with other adopted teens and tweens, promoting identification as an adoptee, providing a safe space to share feelings and thoughts about their adoption experience and supporting their exploration of identity.

The Teen and Tween Adoptee Identity Support Group will meet on Zoom on Thursdays in
April and May (April 18th, April 25th, May 2nd, May 9th, May 16th, May 28th) from 4:30 - 6:00 pm. The group facilitators request that all youths enrolled commit to attending at least 5 of the 6 group meetings.
