Did you know the adoption industry is changing drastically, especially in the last ten years? This is partly due to the activism work by adult adoptees who are fighting for equal rights for access to their adoption documents. You need to know what the future of adoption could look like. Now you can. For the first time, adult adoptees from Europe, America, Asia, and Africa will discuss adoption publically. This is the last week to register for access. We all heard happily ever after stories,
TACOMA, Wash. - Washingtoner -- You need to know the not-so-happy ones if you plan to make a smart decision when it comes to the life of a child. If you plan to adopt a child in the United States, learn about the national grassroots activism work of adult adoptees who are vying for their original birth certificates. If you plan to adopt from overseas, a field researcher will talk about the intersection between international adoption and child trafficking based on child rights law. Before you trust the system of adoption or before you become attached to a charitable photo listing of a child who is not an orphan, consider arming yourself with information. To protect families from exploitation and the risk of unknowingly trafficking a child overseas, we must acknowledge the possible pitfalls that could land us in additional fines or a lifetime of wondering about the true origin of the child. Here is an opportunity to learn about the hidden practices that adoption agencies never share with you. If you've ever wondered what adult adoptees are saying about adoption today, attend this event. Based on the books by Janine Vance: The Search for Mother Missing: A Peek Inside International Adoption, Adoptionland: From Orphans to Activists, and Adoption: What You Should Know. Also, meet Arun Dohle, adopted from India to Germany and now Executive Director of Against Child Trafficking and Tyler Graf, recently interviewed on Nightline and Juju Chang and Good Morning America. To meet these activists, visit Eventbrite. Use the promo code: ACTNOW for $100 OFF ENTRY FEE into the live auditorium seat, but registration ends on June 9th, so ACT NOW. Or, donate to the cause at the Gofundme for educational events and help adult adoptees protect local and global families from adoption fraud.
