People With Care Experience
We believe people with lived experience of adoption or foster care have the right to information and ownership of their own story, with a sense of felt safety and belonging. We seek to hold space for adoptees to integrate all the chapters of their story.
Adoptive & Foster Families
Raising kids through fostering and adoption requires holding the sacred space for all their chapters to be honored. People with lived experiences of adoption and foster care are the experts who should inform parenting and practice.
Practitioners & Initiatives
Adoption and foster care have historically catered to decision-makers rather than being transparent, adoptee centered, and trauma informed. Knowing better means doing better. We must lament the history while elevating adoptees as the experts.
