Mark Demaray periodically teaches a class at Shoreline Community College entitled “The Adoption Option”. This class helps attendees understand the different types of adoption available and provides an overview of services in Washington state, as well as nationally and internationally, to help one decide if adoption is right for them and their families and if so, what type of adoption is best suited for them. Included will be discussions of the risks and benefits of adopting internationally versus domestically, private versus agency adoption of infants, and of adopting children from the state public agency foster care system. The different types of adoption processes, such as private agency and independent adoption, are reviewed as well as information on how to choose an adoption agency, an adoption attorney, and how to talk with family and friends about the decision to adopt.
This class is offered periodically and is next scheduled for April 12, 2010 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Please contact our office or visit Shoreline Community College’s Center for Business & Continuing Education at: www.shoreline.edu/ce where this class is listed as Class #7023.
