Adoptive Care Classes
We offer CPR and Newborn/Infant Care classes designed specifically for adoptive parents. These 3-hour courses meet training hour requirements for most adoption agencies. Classes are a place where families can learn, be themselves and share the excitement and frustrations that often accompany the adoption process. To Register for classes please call, 303-777-6877. If you have questions about classes or specific requirements by an adoption agency please contact Rebecca Vahle, 720-936-9021.
