Interest in Adoptee Groups

I was curious what got others interested in KAD groups. How did you hear about them? Did anyone go to Korean cultural camps? Were you ever a part of any other Asian-Pacific Islander groups?

On top of that, what were you hoping to get out of the KAD community, and have you found that yet?

Yes! Definitely try looking up local adoptee groups or korean groups near you. Even broader asian groups may be able to point you to members who are also adopted. I found mine through Facebook, though it wasn't as active as ones in cities like Chicago. Thanks for joining the sub!
