Hope for the Journey Conference

New Life Adoptions is proud to partner with Show Hope in sharing the Hope for the Journey Conference.

“Introducing Show Hope’s Hope for the Journey Conference (formerly the Empowered to Connect Conference). The aim of this one-day simulcast event will be to shepherd parents and everyday caregivers to a deeper understanding of their children’s needs. By introducing robust resources and sharing practical experiences of successes and failures of the day-to-day, it is our prayer that parents and caregivers will leave encouraged as they continue to journey well with their children.”

“The adoption journey does not end on the day a child is welcomed home; in fact, the journey is just beginning. Children impacted by adoption and/or foster care have often experienced early attachment injuries related to loss, abuse, trauma, and/or neglect. There is hope and help, though. Whether you are in the adoption process, have welcomed a child home through adoption, or are loving and serving well children through foster care, you are not alone.”

“The Hope for the Journey Conference will include five high-level learning modules based on the foundational principles of Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®) along with a new teaching component, The Gospel + TBRI. Embedded within each learning module will be a “Going Deeper” teaching video on a select topic, and also included will be two practical, encouraging “Practical Perspectives” videos featuring the voices of adult adoptees as well as adoptive and foster families.”

New Life Adoptions plans to offer virtual access to this conference again in 2025.

This conference is open to anyone, so feel free to invite your friends and family members to attend or share this information with your church. The cost of this virtual conference is $25 per individual or $40 per couple.
