BAAF NORTHERN IRELAND
LEGAL SEMINAR
28th January 2015
The Reality of Post Adoption Contact – Part 1
THEME
This seminar will consider the reality of how post adoption
contact works in practice from the perspective of the adoptive
parents. Findings will be discussed from a recent research study
which sought to explore the question of what it means for them in
their role as parent in the context of an open adoption, supporting
their child in maintaining connections to birth family members.
The seminar will also hear from an adoptive parent of their
experience of facilitating post-adoption contact and will conclude
with a legal perspective. This is part one of a two part seminar on
Post Adoptive contact. Part two (April 2015) will focus on the
reality of Post Adoption contact from a birth parent’s perspective
and that of an adopted young person.
