Molly, an adoptee from Colombia, talks about the importance of elevating adoptee voices and processing her own adoption story and trauma. She talks about “coming out of the fog,” reflecting on adoption policy, and the importance of having cultural and racial mirrors, honoring international adoptee’s cultures of origin. Molly works professionally as a social worker and shares how her thoughts regarding adoption have evolved with her reunification with her first family.
