My World
|
Regina
Levin, MSW, ACSW
Regina
will lead a "My World" project: The children will
each make their own personal universe using planets to revolve
around the sun (which represents them...as each child is the center
of the universe!). Each planet is identified as something important
in the child's life such as school, church, temple, friends, family,
ballet, scouts, etc. They will talk about when and how adoption
comes up in those parts of their world. This project is fun and
helpful for adopted children as well as bio siblings, and for the
many different adoption circumstances - domestic, international,
younger child, older child, foster adoption, etc.
Regina has
worked in the adoption field for 15 years providing both pre-
and post-adoption services and is currently Social Work Supervisor
for Child & Homestudy Associates. She has facilitated many
workshops for children and has planned children's programs for the
National Adoption Center's annual Adoptive Families Conference.
Regina is the adoptive mother of two children. |
