Adoption Week Scotland (AWS) is a yearly event organised to raise awareness of adoption in Scotland, highlight available support and build connections within the adoption community.

The 2024 AWS runs from Saturday November 23 to Sunday 1 December and is led by Adoption UK Scotland and the Association for Fostering, Kinship and Adoption, alongside partners Scotland's Adoption Register. The programme is funded by the Scottish Government and includes family events, meet-ups, online information sessions and discussions for adoptive families, adopted people and practitioners who work with them.
