The Share Your Story, Your Way support group is primarily designed to create a safe & supportive environment for adopted teens (ages13 to17) to engage with their story alongside fellow adoptees. The group will follow the Teen Adoptee Support Group: Share Your Story, Your Way curriculum which includes personal adoption stories from C.A.S.E.'s (Center for Adoption Support and Education) book, Beneath the Mask: For Teen Adoptees.

​

​

During this 8-week group, teens will:

• Explore the 7 Core Issues of Adoption

• Learn better ways to respond to adoption-related questions and comments

• Have an opportunity to process their personal adoption journey and share their story, their way

• Hear and learn from one another in a supportive and collaborative way

​

​

We all share the reality of adoption being a life-long journey, so let’s walk the journey together. Comfortability with reading and sharing in front of the group is highly encouraged but not mandatory.
