We are a group of Adoptees who get together to share, support and encourage each other through our lifelong adoption journey. Whether it be exploring how adoption has and continues to shape our lives; sharing information and strategies for search, or supporting each other through the emotional process of reunion. This is a new group just founded this October. We meet on the 3rd Monday of the Month, about a hour and a half before the Adoption Knowledge Affiliates (AKA) monthly meeting.

NOTE: Spouses, those who are support systems for adoptees, or anyone who wants to learn more about the adoptee perspective are also certainly welcome.

You do not need to be a member of AKA to attend this MeetUp or to attend the AKA Monthly Meeting that directly follows. As described on the AKA Website (http://www.adoptionknowledge.org/):

Adoption Knowledge Affiliates is a place where adopted people, birth parents, adoptive parents and others are coming together to find a depth of understanding unimaginable before. Whether you're seeking to form a family through adoption, seeking information about family members you have been disconnected from or just seeking knowledge about the lifelong issues in adoption, AKA provides helpful information through educational resources, on-going programs, and emotional support. At our events you will find people of great courage, choosing to sift through past and present perceptions about adoption in order to give voice to the losses, joys and hopes found in adoption's reality. AKA is an organization where there is often a broadening of perspective, a change of heart, tears shed and relief found. AKA is a place where people are reaching out and growing stronger.
