Adopted Vietnamese International (AVI)

This group provides resources and opportunities for Vietnamese adoptees to explore their heritage and adoptee identity as well as share their insights on adoption with adoptive and birth parents and the wider adoption community. It was launched over 10 years ago and has online resources including projects, events and research.

Intercountry Adoptee Voices (ICAV)

This resource is a platform for intercountry adoptees to connect in, share, educate, and advocate to the wider public about the issues we face – political, social and emotional, including the not so positive aspects of intercountry adoption. They also advocate for pre and post adoption resources. They have spaces for adoptee voices and online events open to all adoptees.

Adopted from Colombia

“This page was created to connect Colombian adoptees with each other to work through shared experiences. It is also open to both adoptive and birth parents, but emphasizes the adoptee’s voice. It is a Facebook group that offers support. “

Dear Adoption

This resource is not a formal group for people to meet and share stories. This page has stories submitted by adoptees and a way to submit your own stories as well. You can read through people’s stories as well as any books, film or art. It’s meant to educate people from a variety of adoptee perspectives.

Adoptees Who Cut Ties

“Adoptees Who Cut Ties is an online Facebook group for adoptees only. While many groups are for adoptees who are searching for families, this group is for adoptees who have had to cut ties with family, whether adoptive parent, sibling, or even birth parent in reunion. Adoption is complex, and so are the relationships that go with it. This is a safe space for adoptees to talk about the challenges of estrangement, WITHOUT judgment. “

Heritage Camps for Adoptive Families

Chinese Heritage Camp connects adoptive families with the cultural community, adoption experts, and families with shared experiences.

Holt International Camp

Holt Adoptee Camp maintains a focus on fun and community, just like any other summer camp. What makes this camp special is that we have built in a curriculum for adoptees, by adoptees, that provides a space for adoptees to discuss, share and build identity among their peers. Everything at camp has been created and implemented by adult adoptee staff — making this program one of a kind.
