Spence-Chapin Services to Families and Children

We are excited to share that our team will be hosting an in-person event, Adoption Pathways Information Night at Spence-Chapin, on Thursday, September 12th, 2024, from 6:00-8:30pm ET! This event will be hosted at our headquarters in Manhattan and will offer comprehensive information about various international and domestic adoption pathways. Not only will Spence-Chapin’s International and Domestic Adoption teammates be present at this event, but we will also host a panel of adoption attorneys to speak further about private/independent infant adoption pathways, and a licensed foster care agency to share details about foster-to-adoption pathways. We’d love to have you join our team, and you can register for this event directly on the Events Calendar of our website at this link: https://lnkd.in/eBTkReRj. All families who attend this in-person event will also receive access to our adoption program applications.
