Please seek referrals and assistance with reputable people, as you are giving them personal information. DNA Detectives on Facebook is a good place to seek information and referrals. They are also a good place to find support. Where Adoptee Voices Meet – An Adoptee Centric Connect Group (adopteesconnect.com) There are many online support groups available also. One to consider is Adoption Trauma Network and its private group on Facebook. I am including a few other groups, but the best way to find a group is to enter your specific interest along with the words adoptee support in the search bar on facebook. There are also adoptees in IG, Tiktok and X, as well as Substack and other platforms.
