Celebrate National Adoption Day 2010 on November 20th!
National Adoption Day is a collective national effort to raise awareness of the 123,000 children in foster care waiting to find permanent, loving families. For the last 10 years, National Adoption Day has made the dreams of thousands of children come true by working with courts, judges, attorneys, adoption professionals, child welfare agencies and advocates to finalize adoptions and find permanent, loving homes for children in foster care. Celebrated in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, more than 350 events are held each year throughout the country to finalize the adoptions of children in foster care, and to celebrate all families who adopt. In total, more than 30,000 children have been adopted from foster care on National Adoption Day. This year, National Adoption Day will be Saturday, November 20, 2010.

Law School Fellowships for Adoption, Child Welfare, and Juvenile Law
The National Center for Adoption Law & Policy at Capital University Law School is excited to offer a unique Fellowship opportunity to students applying to law school that are interested in pursuing a career in adoption, child welfare, and/or juvenile law upon graduation.
Please consider forwarding this information to your students.
"When researching which law schools to apply to, I was immediately drawn toward Capital University Law School because of their National Center for Adoption Law and Policy. No other school offered such a specific program devoted to the advocacy of children in the adoption and juvenile law fields. I have no doubt that Capital's NCALP, along with the adoption law fellowship, will allow me the specific resources and direction necessary to join them in being an effective advocate for children within our legal system." – Current 1st Year Fellow
