Adoption Story: From Orphan to One of a Dozen Siblings In-Person

For 76 years, John was an only child of adopted parents, pursuing a lifelong quest for identity and belonging. Share in his personal journey of being abandoned and orphaned at four months, then adopted at eighteen months. See how, after years of searching, he pieced his story together through volunteer DNA research, discovering the identities of his biological parents and connecting with siblings from each of his biological parents, becoming the oldest of twelve in all. He will explore the trauma of relinquishment and the challenges he and most adoptees face throughout their lives.
