Abstract

The purpose of this study was to survey the knowledge and attitudes among Graduate counseling students toward transracial adoption, at a private university in the midwest. This study used a questionnaire designed to gather information on racial issues, parental roles, risk to a successful adoption and the graduate's education and training. The study identifies information on whether students will be prepared to deal with families who seek counseling as the number of transracial placements increase.
