There is a range of support services available to adoptive parents, including therapeutic, educational, and sometimes financial support to help you when looking after your child. The best place to start is to speak to your adoption agency and find out about any services they offer such as training or peer support groups. Your adoption agency will have access to their own adoption support and they will be able to provide more information on the specific support available to you and your family. You can also receive additional educational support, such as priority access to schools and pupil premium funding for adopted children so it’s a good idea to speak to your child’s school.
