They are thrilled to finally be parents, and are totally involved in meeting the immediate needs of the child. But what about the years that follow? Do the effects of adoption stop the moment that a child comes home to the new parents? Those closely associated with adoption-adult adopted persons, birth parents, adoptive parents, and their friends and families-know that its effects can be felt for a long time, in fact for a lifetime. Adult adoptees often talk about them.

Casey Family Services: For Youth 2002 Sep 08 "Victoria Rowell is also national spokesperson for Casey Family Services. She has embraced this task with the enthusiasm that is her signature. Between March and May last year she was on four national TV shows talking about Casey Family Services and the need for more people to get involved in foster care. She also narrated a Public Service Announcement (PSA) for radio and television and arranged for our PSA to be aired in movie theatres around the country. The PSA has aired throughout New England and soon will be shown nationally on CBS network television." 2000 May 30 "We are a Christian, non-profit, licensed child placing agency. We specialize in placing African-American, Hispanic and biracial children in adoption. In Texas, there are thousands of children waiting for permanent homes. These children have been abused, neglected or abandoned. Over 60% of these children are children of color, with the highest percentage being African American and are typically between the ages of 4-14. Most are brothers and sisters needing to be placed together." Pact: An Adoption Alliance 1999 Jun 23 "... Pact's founders and small staff have dedicated themselves to the mission of providing the highest quality adoption-related services to children of color, their birth parents and their adoptive parents."

34. Adoption Issues And Ideas What adoption issues are most pressing in Canada today, and what are some ideas for improving the lives of everyone involved in adoption? http://www.cfc-efc.ca/docs/vanif/00002_en.htm

Adoption Issues and Ideas What adoption issues are most pressing in Canada today, and what are some ideas for improving the lives of everyone involved in adoption? We asked Elspeth Ross, an educator, researcher, Board member of the Adoption Council of Canada, and the adoptive mother of young adults. Here’s what she told us about some issues and ideas that have come out of her own involvement with adoption and from listening to others in the adoption community: Among Canadians there is a general lack of awareness about adoption, despite the fact that a large percentage of the population is involved in some way. Provincial and federal governments need to take more responsibility for all aspects of domestic and international adoption, and to work together on behalf of children. We need federal legislation, and funding for data collection, think tanks and programs like Canada’s Waiting Children. Canada urgently needs more research and publishing on adoption. We lack basic data, especially on: the number of children in care, adoption successes, children’s need for a permanent home, and the movement of children from foster care into adoption. We can learn from the examples set by the United States and the United Kingdom, where there are institutes for researching adoption.

Adoption Resources Adopting a Child by Donna McCloskey Les Miserables In this issue of Transition A Family at Last by Judith Wine I was not at the birth of my son. He was five hours old when I met him. Sometimes I wonder about those hours I missed. Did he cry out? Did he sense that the people who would most shape his life were not near, did not yet know he had taken his first breath? She thanked us . She said she no longer felt like she was giving us her child but that she was giving her child a family. All the air seeped out of my chest. I let myself hope, just a little, that the years of trying, waiting and hoping might soon be over. We had been on the medical make-a-baby treadmill for almost three years. Three years (a short period for this sort of thing) of physical and emotional hell. That first December, I wrote my own version of The Twelve Days of Christmas . Every day of treatment my doctor brought to me: three self-inflicted needles, two bruising blood tests and an ultrasound by a novice nurse.
