Many adoptive and foster families have been greatly helped in better loving and caring for their children by the the insights, guidance and practical tools of Dr. Karyn Purvis.
Her book, The Connected Child, is a wonderful starting point for any adoptive family, especially those who have adopted or are fostering older children or those who came from difficult circumstances.
Our friends from the Tapestry Ministry at Irving Bible Church have compiled a wonderful list of links to resources, articles, audio and video on their site.
Watch Dr. Purvis keynote from the 2008 Tapestry Adoption & Foster Care Conference, on “Better Understanding Our Children: An Overview of Common Challenges Faced by Adopted & Foster Children”.
