We are here for you! At Nightlight, we have developed a Post Adoption Connection Center as a way to stay connected to your family and provide support to any areas of need, from your first week home until your child reaches adulthood. We know there are many hurdles to navigate that we have prepared you for during your training process. It may be difficult to recall and implement those tools and strategies when normal life takes over.
Fall 2024 Support Groups:
Blocked Care Support Group - Has parenting your child not turned out how you thought? Are you overwhelmed by your child’s behavior and feel resentful, cynical, irritable, or lost compassion? This is commonly called “Blocked Care” and we are offering a group for parents to help.
Colombia Child Adoptees Support Group - This group is for children, ages 11-17, who were adopted from Colombia. This group will run monthly for 6 months. The group is conducted in Spanish and is open to children that were adopted at any time from Colombia.

You are part of the Nightlight family, from your interaction with individual staff and offices to our organization as a whole. We are excited to stay connected to you and see your child grow and develop through the years. We have a plan for communicating with you on a regular basis. Whenever you need help you are welcome to call – no matter how many months or years have passed. Our desire for this Center is to be a central place for you to come as you have needs, even if the adoption advisor you worked with has moved on. You are part of the Nightlight family so we commit to stay connected to you through:
The Nightlight staff you have worked with throughout your adoption journey will continue to support you through post-adoption visits and continued communication. The Post Adoption Connection Center is here to provide additional support and give you a place to come to as needs arise. No matter how long it has been, Nightlight wants to connect with you and provide support.
Nightlight Christian Adoptions has acquired the files for several agencies over the years and we are here to support you if you adopted through any one of these agencies. Contact us here at the Post Adoption Connection Center if you have lost touch with your previous adoption advisor and agency so we can support your needs.
