Put on some work clothes, roll up your sleeves and grab a paint brush! On the schedule for today is some floor scraping, some wall painting, and some cleaning. We may start to move some furniture into the space, and sort through some donated supplies.

We will take an hour break for lunch- there is a food truck and restaurants nearby.

Let me know if you can bring en extra ladder, paint pole, or paint brush!

These meetings are designed for adult adoptees, facilitated by adult adoptees, to support one another and offer a safe place to share, discuss, and gain words for better understanding &/or expressing our adoption experiences.

Each week we will discuss topics from the book Adoption Therapy, which is an anthology written by 13 adult adoptees, 7 individuals with mental health degrees, and 3 adoptive parents. Time is given for individual sharing, but no one is required to do so- We encourage each person to participate, or just listen, however they wish.

Chapter 2- March 7th- The author of this chapter is an adoptive parent and she shares about red flags that may indicate a therapist could do more harm than good. She covers a lot of really interesting points on: implicit memory, multiple diagnoses, and gratitude,to name a few, plus covers at least one controversial topic that I can’t wait to hear your opinions about….

Meeting held at 122 S Terrace Ave
