Welcome to the Adopt Well Podcast! We are an educational community for anyone touched by adoption. Each episode exists to educate and encourage. We know that adopting well is a lifelong mission. It means learning from those around us - adoptees, birth parents, and adoptive parents. We're never going to be perfect and that's ok. But, anything worth doing is worth doing well. No matter how you're touched by adoption, we are glad you're here.
