6-2-07 I attended my first home study requirement...A 4 hour educational class at Reaching Out's office. It was just me, Carol Eifferman (social work coordinator) and one other couple. The class was very informative and it was nice she only had to concentrate on our two countries (the others were adopting from Guatemala). We were given packets on information from support groups, what to bring when we travel, U.S. doctors to contact for medical record reviewing, to different types of "diseases" and/or illnesses to look out for. All in all, it was very relaxed and comforting. I continue to feel in the right hands.
