In this episode of ShiftED, we talk with the AdoptED educators — also known as Adoption Education Specialists — about what the program looks like on the ground. Kerry & Amy will walk you through a day in the life of a guest presenter going into schools all over the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex to present AdoptED’s curriculum (when we still could). They’ll also walk through the details of preparing and transitioning to a virtual learning environment. Also get ready for a hilarious story involving baby dolls, trunks, and daycare teachers. 👶🏻

Join us on this new, auditory journey with ShiftED’s hosts, Kerry & Amy, as we seek to educate and equip students and teachers with relevant information about adoption, child welfare, and what it’s like to be a teenager. We’ll also have some fun along the way.
