Concerned United Birthparents

Founded in 1976 by women who lost their infants to the closed adoption era, we continue today supporting all those who have been impacted by family separation.

Don't miss last week's #LARBRadioHour with @gesisson discussing "Relinquished: The Politics of Adoption and the Privilege of American Motherhood." Tune in as she talks adoption, conservative Christianity, and reproductive freedom. https://t.co/mZaxXGCimc

Will we see the first institutional apology for #forcedadoption in America from The Episcopal Church in 2023? We pray. 🙏

🗓️ Parents of adoption loss, especially from the closed adoption era, are connecting with each other every month here. It's a great peer-to-peer group meeting to connect and share experiences. Join us or if you know someone who should, send them along! ❤️

We are really excited for this book and even more excited to have @gesisson scheduled to join us at our 2023 CUB Retreat this Fall in Redondo Beach, CA!

[Concerned United Birthparents @CUBirthparents]

Proud to have @MothersforTruth standing with us in solidarity for adoptee equality. Our voices are frequently co-opted to support discriminatory policy against adult adoptees and we're doing everything we can to speak up for #adopteerights #adopteevoices https://t.co/uscNJVF5rS

[Concerned United Birthparents @CUBirthparents]

True story. We have almost a half-century of experience living with losing our children to adoption and we can report: it's painful. Forever.

[ANSIRH @ANSIRH]

Adoption is not an alternative to abortion.

Birth parents who give their children up for adoption experience much more distress than people who are able to have an abortion.

Early registration is OPEN! Join us in Redondo Beach, CA this October for our 2023 CUB Retreat. https://t.co/8EddVwcGGE

Our promise to #adoptees today: we are with you in your fight for #equality. We are working to leverage our voice more collectively in the coming months and it is our honor to do so. Keep going, we're behind you! 🇺🇸🧬❤️#adopteerights https://t.co/65zSXWfTx7

40 states discriminate against adoptees who can't get their orig birth cert. Anyone who thinks those laws are "protecting" us is kiddng themselves. Adoptees are using DNA sites where this new census is being indexed. We want the private option: give #adoptees their birth certs.

[WA State Library @WAStateLib]

Today's the day - the #1950Census is now available!

Growing up in my adoptive family was good.That doesn't mean growing up in my natural family wouldn't also have been good. #flipthescript
