    Adoption isn’t a secret. 
    But it often stays quiet—held back by fear, uncertainty, or not knowing what to say. It’s part of our neighborhoods, our classrooms, our workplaces, our faith communities, and our lives. Yet too often, it remains invisible. 
    This book is a conversation starter. It shines a light on what adoption really looks like today: complex, layered, and deeply human. 
    Whether you’re an adoptee, adoptive parent, birth parent, kinship caregiver, teacher, employer, spiritual leader, policymaker, or simply someone who wants to be an ally or advocate, this book offers the language, insight, and practical steps to make adoption a visible and respected part of how we live and relate to one another. 
    Featuring real voices and stories from people with lived experience and those working to support them. Because when we break the silence and move beyond stigma, we make space for truth, healing, and belonging.
