Photolistings in practice: Strengthening professional practice through effective use of AdoptUSKids

The photolisting on AdoptUSKids is a widely used recruitment tool designed to connect children and youth in foster care with prospective adoptive families. Successful outcomes depend not only on the photolisting platform, but also how thoughtfully child welfare professionals prepare youth, develop listings, and guide the process over time.

Join us as we explore best practices for managing the ethical, emotional, and logistical aspects of the photolisting process to support positive outcomes for youth and families.

Who should join? 

The webinar is designed for child welfare professionals across state, county, tribal, and territorial agencies who support children, youth, and families. Supervisors, administrators, managers, private agencies, and nonprofit partners will also find this session valuable, especially those interested in strengthening diligent recruitment strategies.
