Journeys Program

Cozy Connections Book Club (Virtual)
2025-11-03 19:00 - 2026-02-16 19:00 (America/Chicago) | WI
Registration for this event is required on Eventbrite.

Gather your people, brew some tea, and crack open a good book because connection starts with a story. The Wisconsin Family Connections Center now has book club kits ready to help individuals come together, laugh, learn, and feel less alone. Whether you are a foster, adoptive, or kinship caregiver – this group is for you!
Please join us for a series of relaxed evenings (virtual) to share reflections, connections, and conversations as we read through: Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate.
This online book club will meet every other Monday at 7pm, starting Monday, November 3rd, 2025.
When you register, please be sure to fill out your most recent contact information as the book kits will be shipped directly to your home. We kindly ask any books sent by the Wisconsin Family Connections Center be returned after reading. If you already have a copy of this book or have access to a copy through your local library, please indicate that when you register.
Once this group finishes the current book, the group will help select the next read.
For any questions or concerns regarding this online book club, please contact Megan at mmiller@cclse.org.

This event is limited to Wisconsin residents impacted by adoption or out-of-home care and their immediate household.

Family Fun Day at the Madison Children's Museum
2025-12-21 09:30 - 11:30 | 100 N Hamilton St, 100 North Hamilton Street, Madison, WI, 53703, United States
Registration for this event is required on Eventbrite.

Join WiFCC for a fun-filled morning at the Madison Children’s Museum. The Children’s Museum offers non-traditional learning opportunities that help kids of all ages see, touch, learn, and grow their way through important developmental milestones and have fun while learning. Our group will have a room set aside from 9:30 A.M. to 11:30 A.M with snacks and water, but your tickets will be active for the entire day. This event is open to youth and their caregivers. Please note that all children at this event need to be accompanied by a supervising adult.

This event would be a great opportunity to invite your child’s birth/first family or previous foster family. We understand this may not work for all families, but encourage you to consider it. We hope to create an opportunity for children to have all their loved ones in one location whenever possible and create positive memories together. Please have each household register separately.

If you have any questions or accommodation needs, please contact Megan at mmiller@cclse.org.

Cancellations for events must be made at least 72 hours in advance. If 3 or more late cancellations or no-shows occur within a six-month period, the household’s event registrations in the following six months will default to a waitlist.

This event is limited to Wisconsin residents impacted by adoption or out-of-home care and their immediate household.
