AFTHtv S17Ep7 - Advocating for Support for the Adoptee

Christian, a Chilean adoptee and an AFTH social worker, joins us on AFTHtv to share how his personal experiences have profoundly shaped his work in adoption. He recalls how discovering open adoption agencies expanded his perspective on adoption and its possibilities. Christian candidly discusses his own journey as a child who knew little about his birth family and how that experience has influenced his approach to counseling expectant parents about their open adoption options. He also highlights the importance of creating spaces for connection and support, sharing details about the adoptee support group he co-facilitates.
