We need to talk about adoption
During Adoption Week Scotland, we want to encourage people to talk about adoption. Though it can be difficult for those involved, it offers a positive destination for children waiting to find their place of permanence. A family home, where the child feels secure and loved can make all the difference to their future.
Adoption is a very complex experience. It does not begin and end with any legal process, but is a lifelong experience for children and parents. It is a process that involves many different people and different perspectives.
Enquiries to the council can be made through the our website or by email foster.adopt@moray.gov.uk
