Adoption Day in Ukraine
September 17 · Level 4 · #1458 of 2238
Ukraine’s Adoption Day draws attention to every child’s need for a family. It recognises adoptive parents and the people who help children without parental care find lasting relationships, stability and support.
How it is celebrated: children’s services and community organisations share information, offer consultations and bring families together. Adoptive parents tell their stories, giving prospective parents a clearer picture of both the joys and the responsibilities involved.
The observance has a religious calendar connection: it is linked to the commemoration of Saints Faith, Hope and Love and their mother, Sophia.
