30 Days Of Meetup - Day 7

The Triangle Adoption Support Group
The Triangle Adoption Support Group September Meetup
(http://birthparents.meetup.com/86/)

The Triangle Adoption Support Group was made to support all members who make
up the adoption triad. It is a 'safe' place for our members to come and
discuss where they are in reunion, or discuss other adoption related issues
and problems. Our group is made up of individuals from all sides of the
adoption triad. Adult adoptees, birth parents, adoptive parents, sibilings,
adoption professionals.

Upcoming events include in November a showing of the movie Loggerheads - a
story about a North Carolina birth mother who relinquished her son and then
went looking for him after he turned 21. She found too late, as he had died
a year prior to her finding him. We also will be showing a video called 10
Things: Adoption Search and Reunion in the upcoming months.

Our September 7 Meetup will be about those adoptees who resulted as of Donor
Insemination. Do they have rights to locate the person who supplied either
the sperm or egg in order to creat them? Do they have a right to that half
of their medical makeup? What types of emotional or other types of
challenges confront these adoptees?

We look forward to any member of the adoption triad coming to our group
meetings.

Organizer : Roberta
