Subject: Upcoming seminar for Transracial families

We have finalized the date for showing two of the additional modules that the 
movie "Adopted" came with.  We plan on showing "The Multiracial Family" and 
"Identity for the Transracial Adoptee" along with having a panel of adult 
adoptees on Sunday, May 15th in the afternoon - starting at 2:00 pm.The modules
are each 25 minutes long, plus time for the panel and questions will be needed,
but it should be under 3 hours total I believe for  everything.  
  
We'll offer childcare again at $5 per child or $10 per family (if more than
two children in the same family) while you are attending.  This will be held at 
Edgewood United Church  in East Lansing.  The address is 469 N. Hagadorn in East
Lansing.  Go to  www.edgewooducc.org and find the "contact us" then click on 
"where is  Edgewood?" and get directions. There is plenty of free parking if you
turn on  the street immediately north of the church and go to the lot on the
left just  past the church. 
  
I can hire the childcare workers, but I'll need a count of how many kids  are
expected so that I hire enough staff and how many adults are planning
on coming to make sure we set up in the right sized room for all the parents
and  the panelists.
 

 IF YOU BELIEVE YOU CAN MAKE IT PLEASE RSVP TO ME THE NUMBER OF ADULTS COMING
AND 
THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN AND THEIR AGES.  bruce.craig@att.net

 
The only charge for the event is for the childcare, otherwise it's free and
the costs will be taken jointly from the GLOBA funds we were given and FCC's
funds.
 
Thank you,
