🧡 At Adopters for Adoption, we believe that acknowledging a child’s past can help them build a brighter future.
Our latest blog explores the importance of birth-family contact in adoption. When safe and appropriate, connections, whether through letters, visits, or shared memories, can:
• support your child’s sense of identity by helping them understand where they came from.
• reduce feelings of loss for siblings who might have been placed separately.
• help birth families feel connected and involved in a positive way.
If you’re thinking about adoption, or supporting an adopted child, it’s worth exploring how birth-family contact might fit into your plans.
