history / research

As far as I know, the only one of it’s kind: a book of narratives entirely about birth searches (not all kad). Many intercountry adoptees share in this paper how useful it would have been if they had been able to seek input and guidance from those who have travelled this path before.  My hope is this paper will help to alleviate this need.
