staff whom are both Korean immigrants and Korean adoptees.
- Help students become aware of and address adoption
issues.
- Building lasting friendships between students and
staff.
- Provide a variety of learning styles and
experiences.
- Prepare youth to cope with future challenges.
- Equip parents in becoming aware of adoption issues faced
by their adopted Asian child(ren) and assist parents to cope with these issues
positively.
- Provide an opportunity for families to explore reasons
for making a trip to Korea.
