2026-01-30 - Adult Adoptee Panel

 

Adult Adoptee Panel

Please join Adoptive Families of Houston to spend an evening with a panel of adult adoptees who will share their stories.  

This will be a wonderful opportunity to hear the panelists discuss and answer questions such as:

  • How they were told they were adopted
  • How family/friends/classmates treated them as adoptees
  • What birth family relationships were like growing up in an open adoption
  • What prompted the search for birth family
  • How birth families received adoptees who searched for them
  • How they felt about the “family tree” assignment in school
  • The impact of nature vs. nurture in their lives
 
There will be Q and A at the end of the program and a group discussion.
