One population of foster children that often doesn't get the right kind of attention is those who age out of foster care. This cliff that youth often fall off of exists due to many factors. Some of the problems are due to the system they are leaving and the resources that are drying up. Some of it is the trauma they have lived through and the instability that has left so many of them lacking basic life skills. Part of the problem is a lack of experienced adults to offer support to fall back on. Maurita McCorkle has seen so many young adults struggle as they leave foster care that she has taken it on as her mission to try to help. Maurita has written a book about her experience and started a non-profit with the goal of surrounding young adults with everything they need to succeed in adulthood, no matter what they have experienced in life up until that point. Find out more about her story and her dreams for the future in this episode.…
Marianne Novy was an adoptee who was encouraged to hide that fact and obliged the people around her by keeping quiet about it until she became a college student. Over time she chose to seek out members of her birth family and develop some relationships with some of them. When she became a college professor, adoption became a part of her teaching life, and she also wrote on the topic. Her most recent book compared themes and insights from reading 45 different adoption memoirs. Learn more about this project and how doing this reading and research influenced her ideas about open adoption in this episode of Adoption Uncovered.…

1 Families who adopt children with severe behaviors from foster care have a chance at hope thanks to Katie Rose Noto. 38:45
Katie Rose Noto always knew she wanted to adopt a child at some point in her life. She imagined a house full of children and dogs. As her life progressed she made the choice to dive into being a foster parent whether she felt fully ready or not. Little did she know that the boys she welcomed into her home had suffered abuse and neglect to the point where they exhibited severe behaviors that she had never seen or heard of. Katie Rose went on a journey she had never imagined finding herself on, and she felt very alone and overwhelmed. Her training didn't prepare her for what she was seeing in front of her. Even though she felt alone she thought there must be others out there that were struggling with children who had severe diagnoses like hers. Katie Rose is determined to try to connect and support others like her. She started Attach Families, INC to connect and support families like hers with a support hotline, support groups and other services that Attach Families offers free of charge. Katie Rose is not done, though. She has big dreams of a world where kids like her sons are supported and cocooned with all the treatments that might lead them to the most productive and happy life they can reach.…
When Susan Fedorko was growing up she was content with her life and felt secure and cared for. In the back of her mind, however, this adoptee always wondered about the family that had allowed her to be adopted and who they might be. When Susan reached adulthood she put out her information in the hopes that she would discover her first family. It wasn't until she was 40 that she received a phone call that connected her to her first family. Among the surprises she learned one of them was the truth about her Native American ethnicity and tribal membership. She was one of many Native American adoptees in America who didn't discover their connection until later in life. Thankfully for Susan, she can now celebrate her roots and is working to pass the membership down to her children.…

There are many Christians in the world of adoption and many of them do wonderful work supporting foster families, and foster children, and making sure children outside of the country who need homes can access them. Some families within Evangelical Christianity have developed adoption practices that attracted the interest of investigative journalist and author Kathryn Joyce. Her book “The Child Catchers” highlights cautionary tales of what can happen if the needs of children and first families are put aside to benefit families willing to pay money to grow their families. This interview and Kathryn’s book include many invitations to spark creative conversations about the state of international adoption a few years ago and how our efforts can be used to help children who need it get into stable homes in the future, whether that is through adoption or via another path.…

1 Trace Lara Hentz Talks About the Importance of "The Count 2024" to Native American Adoptees Everywhere. 33:38
Most of us have heard bits and pieces about how poorly America has treated the Native Tribes that have lived on this land. We may not understand fully how adoption was weaponized against tribes to raise children who were brought up without a memory of their heritage and culture. As journalist Trace Lara Hentz began to look into her own past as a Native American Adoptee she began to realize how many people like her are out there and alone. This year she is embarking on a project to find out how many adoptees in America and around the world can trace their history to a Native American tribe. Listen to this interview with Trace for more information about how adoption is connected to America's treatment of Native American tribes, and where we should go from here.…

1 In America, But Not at Home: A Discussion With Patricia Knight Meyer about her adoption story and how she processed her trauma through writing. 30:20
Patricia Knight Meyer's story seems foreign compared to the happy renditions of adoptive families brought together for happy holiday photos. She was adopted quietly, without proper paperwork. This left her in a state of limbo for a good portion of her life, worried that if anyone looked hard enough she would not be able to prove her identity or her citizenship. Over the course of her life she sought out her birth family, but even that connection was not a simple solution to her problem. Find out about more about how she navigated life without documentation and how her writing helped her process her experience.…

When Carlynne Hershberger found out she was pregnant at 19 she could never have known then how that experience would shape the rest of her life. Many women don't. In Carlynne's case she became a victim of the baby scoop era when young pregnant women were hidden away and their babies were taken from them with little consideration for their feelings on the matter and given to other families to raise. Carlynne wants us to be aware that even though the baby scoop era is technically in the past, large pieces of that thinking remain. She believes birth mothers need more support and more options available to them so they can truly consider what is best for them and their children.…

Adoption is changing. Technology now makes it possible to adopt the embryos left over from couples who have attempted or succeeded in IVF treatments. Oversight and regulation of this transaction is in its infancy. The people adopting these embryos and those encouraging the idea of the personhood of these embryos are a select group. Where is this practice headed and what does it mean for the children who are conceived through this practice and the couples who could start families this way, but don't have access to this practice yet? These are all questions that still need to be solved as embryo adoption grows. Risa Cromer has been studying embryo adoption as an anthropologist who specializes in reproductive politics at Purdue University. This conversation I have with her sheds some light on where embryo adoption came from and where it might be headed.…

The orphan trains were an early experiment in American history in which well meaning adults in large East Coast cities put children that didn't appear to be in the care of an adult on a train out west to be adopted by farm families . For some children this meant they traded a life of scrounging on the street for food and living out in the elements for a warm bed and regular meals. Other children who were only temporarily without care knew they were leaving whole families behind in the city and didn't want to go. Then there were children who were confused and didn't know which way to turn. Some of the families these children were placed into did give them a warm bed and a spot at the family table. Other children languished in the barn and were treated as indentured help. Looking into America's adoption history can help us see where we have come from and teach us lessons on where we should go. Learn along with us.…

JeNae heads up the KidTeen program at Wasatch International adoption agency. Wasatch has one of the few programs in the country willing to work with families who have already adopted, but find that the child they adopted is not doing well in their home and they might need to place the child in another home. This is one of the more difficult aspects of adoption. What happens when adoptions don't work out? Find our more about this process, the children and families involved and how JeNea navigates all of this trauma to try to bring peace and wellbeing to all involved.…

Laura Orsini didn’t know her life was about to change, but the positive pregnancy test did for her what it has done for so many other women who aren’t expecting or ready for a child. It shocked her brain into planning mode to consider her options for this pregnancy.

She was grateful that the process was rather smooth for her, but even more grateful for her almost miraculous interaction with the adoptive family and her son later in life.…

Adoptive Black Mom was busy working on her career and waiting to see if a traditional family would happen for her. This was not what the universe dealt her. As she moved through her life she began to evaluate whether motherhood would be something she would pursue on her own. She decided to move toward adoption and as she did it felt to her that often she was on the outside of a system that was not understanding or supportive of Black adoptive parents like her. She began the Adoptive Black Mom Blog initially to keep friends and family posted on her adoption progress, but over time she realized her audience was growing and she had the chance to be the voice of the Black adoptive parent that she missed hearing along her journey.…
