Howdy Everyone,
The days have grown shorter and we’re all gearing up for tricks and treats this week. One lovely treat coming your way is The Birth Circle’s monthly meeting on Wednesday! We have a wonderfully informative meeting scheduled and we hope you join us. Many of us are curious about fostering and adoption opportunities in our area, and this month we have one of our local experts from Athens County Children Services coming to share information and answer your questions. If you’ve been through either process, we would love for you to come and share your experiences as well! Please check out the details below and we look forward to seeing you there!
Also below, you will find information on how to participate in our Impact Survey, how to donate to The Birth Circle, and how to volunteer for JIVE! Contact us with any questions. Thanks for your support!
Warmly,
Claudia Bashaw
Executive Director, The Birth Circle

ADOPTION AND FOSTERING OPTIONS IN ATHENS COUNTY
Wednesday, October 26th

This month we welcome Tanja Kuhre, the Athens County Children Services Foster Parent Recruiter/Trainer. She will speak with us about fostering and adopting in our region. If you have ever wondered how to become a foster parent, or have questions about adopting children from our area, she is happy to share her knowledge with you, so please plan to join us. If you are a family who has experience with fostering, and those who have gone through the adoption process, we encouraged you to come and share your journey! We’ll see you there!
