Participant Feedback

 

July, 2011

 

"I think this is a truly wonderful thing that you guys are doing. This is all information that we would not normally receive during nursing school. During one of my rotations my patient had an adoption plan so it was really nice to have that background knowledge when caring for her. Thank you greatly for what you do. " Montana participant.

 

"I typically do not counsel pregnant clients, however because of the training I feel more confident that if I do have a pregnant client who expresses to me that she feels it would be difficult to parent her child that I can recommend adoption as one of her options. " South Dakota participant.

 

"It was one of the best trainings I attended all year. Wonderful engaging and knowledgeable trainers who provided a great balance of instructional time combined with group activities and multimedia presentations. " Montana participant.

"Although I do not work in this area currently, it was an excellent educational workshop and has motivated me to pursue adoption as a career interest. " North Dakota participant.
