A Collection of Adoptee Reflections

Beschreibung

'Rooted in Adoption' is a collection of 48 real-life narratives from individuals with experiences of domestic and international adoption and foster care. The book offers insights into the joys and challenges of adoption, emphasizing that it is a lifelong journey filled with complex emotions. With a foreword by licensed professional counselor and trauma specialist Jules Alvarado, this book is a valuable resource for educators, mental health professionals, adoptive families, prospective adoptive families, and birth families in reunion. Shelby Kilgore is an adoptee from Korea and has been producing reality/documentary series for the past fifteen years, after graduating from The University of Florida with a bachelor's degree in telecommunications in 2006. As an adoptee from Korea, Shelby first told her adoption story on camera when she was seventeen. It was a very healing experience for her, and she knew one day she would help others tell their stories. Once Shelby became an established producer, with two Daytime Emmy wins under her belt, she became confident enough to start her passion project of spreading education and awareness about foster care and adoption through the video lens. In 2012, she filmed her first interviews and launched her YouTube Channel: Shelby Redfield Kilgore and Facebook page: -Adoption Awareness. You can find all of her work at wearemirrorlight.com. Reading is one of her favorite things to do, as well as singing and traveling around the world.
