All Children - All Families Promising Practices Guide
The cornerstone of the All Children – All Families initiative is the Promising Practices Guide. Offering examples of effective agency practices, the Guide is the first comprehensive, practical tool aimed to help agency leaders actively improve policies and practices that affect their work with GLBT prospective adoptive parents.
The Guide features sample policies and materials, along with tips from leaders of welcoming agencies, researchers in the field and GLBT adoptive and foster parents. Topics include leadership and governance; staff training and recruitment strategies; pre-adoption services; home study practices; placement; services for foster parents; post-permanency support for adoptive families and retention of foster families.
