Today is #AdopteeRemembranceDay when we take time to honour those who have not survived. They are remembered. We will continue to call for more, and better, support for adoptees and work for greater understanding of the impact on our mental health.
Thank you Paul for this amazing gift. Talking to adoptees about CPTSD, mental health and so many other subjects was not only validating but helpful too. Thank you @zaramusic for hosting and finally big up to @essix_girl and @stoweyvik for organising it

@makingofmepdcst@NPR@LouiseBrowne_LA@SarahLReinhardt They have asked for adoptees to reach out and comment on recent shows, but have made it almost impossible to connect to 1A with our stories. A missed opportunity by 1A. They stopped allowing call ins and have not promoted this. It's a very important topic for adoptees.
#adopteevoices#adoptee Adoptees reach out to 1A before Thursday 11am EST to have your voices heard. They are hosting Gretchen Sisson, Sarah Reinhardt, & Louise Browne to talk about adoptees and mental health struggles.

Saw this post on reddit. It's giving big red flags. The group referenced in the post looks to be run by adopters & those who promote RAD diagnosis in adoptee & care experienced children. Have other adoptees & care experienced people heard of this group?

In response to recent events we've come together with Dionne at DAWTA host this event on Sunday. In order to keep the space safe this event is for TRA's and Adoptees of colour only. You can email us or DM for a link

Hi, @MDSenate and @SenBillFerg. I believe in evidence-based child welfare policies. No on SB873 and installing baby boxes in Maryland. RT if you agree.
This is now an action alert. Please contact the committee hearing this bill on Monday. Details, with everything you need to know. #adopteetwitter#NoOnHB544 https://t.co/thmSdEjTSr
MICHIGAN! I only ask people to do broad action alerts if I feel they are necessary. This one is necessary, and it can be effective. This is national in scope and for everyone, so please contact Michigan Senators today. https://t.co/0HfJZEJt1l
We may need everyone’s help on a bill in Michigan, where the opposition is literally piling on (and ignoring reality). Are you ready to help? We can do this. Together. More tomorrow.
We defeated a baby box bill in Colorado! It went up in flames today at third reading, being set aside for the remainder of the session. bcc: @StopSHBB

Check where your information comes from. If there is a lot of money involved, like the adoption industry, they have an agenda. It is to find babies for people with the money. It is not about finding babies homes. #adoptedchameleon thank you
Y'all, just as a heads up, people are using the website "Adoption Network" as an "independent" and unbiased source for statistics and information about adoption.
It's a law office that facilitates adoptions. It is not a source for unbiased facts.
