À propos de ce contenu audio

The Adoption files seeks to provide a place for adoptees and allies to discuss the laws preventing adoptees from accessing their identities, and the emotional and physical challenges adoptees face in the process of dealing with the obstacles we face. We recognize the need to expose the problematic aspects of the adoption industry and the narrative they perpetuate. We will not only talk about the laws and the challenges they create, but also the ways that the mythology around adoption impacts the way we move through our lives, as adopted people and as mothers and other family members.Ande Stanley Science Sciences sociales

  • The Same , Even if it Seems Different: a conversation with a stepparent adoptee about access to original birth certificates
    Apr 22 2026

    Please join me for a conversation with Toronto Canada stepparent adopted person Craig Wallace.

    People who are adopted, even by stepparents, are legally barred from accessing a certified copy of their original birth certificate. Some places allow an adopted person to access a noncertified copy at a specified age.

    The opinions of the host and their guest are just that, their opinions.
