Its often difficult to see the full picture in adoption. Adoptees and adoptive parents have individual and unique perspectives and struggles that don't get seen side by side. Inside Transracial Adoption is a window into the journey of an adoptive family with all the highs and lows.

Adoptive mother Julie Etter, son Isaac Etter, and daughter Sarah Etter will give adoption professionals and adoptive parents a window into their real-life struggles, lessons, and joys. They will share their individual perspectives and how they learned to see each others view points. They will open the space to questions from the audience and provide resources post-presentation.
