If you're in the Lower Mainland and want to meet other adoptive families, join us for a fun and educational afternoon at the Honeybee Centre in Surrey!
This event is perfect for families of all ages, with activities that young children will especially enjoy. There’s something for everyone in the open classroom, filled with games, puzzles, science activities, sensory play, and books. If time allows, we'll head to Tim Hortons afterward for treats and some more time to chat and connect.
Suggested donation: $2 per person to the Honeybee Centre, plus any personal purchases at Tim Hortons.

Why join the Face to Face Connections events? Connecting with other adoptive and permanency families can bring real benefits. Meeting others who share similar experiences can ease feelings of isolation, deepen your understanding of your child’s unique needs, and boost your confidence as a parent or caregiver. Through these connections, you can build a strong support network within a community that genuinely understands and supports your journey.
For children and youth, these gatherings foster a unique sense of belonging. Connecting with peers who truly “get it” helps them feel understood. Sharing stories with others who have similar experiences can boost self-esteem and build friendships, making it easier—and much less lonely—to navigate complex emotions.
