Families with Children from China introduces Let’s Talk: Cross Cultural Adoption


Terra Trevor, of Cherokee, Delaware, Seneca ancestry, frequently writes on the topics of motherhood, transracial adoption, culture, ethnicity, her identity as a mixed blood, as well as the experience of raising a child with a life-threatening illness and the process of healing from the death of a child. She is hailed for her insight, candor, lyric prose and sincere voice. The title of the workshop/session she will be presenting is: “Evolution of Adoptive Parent Identity: The Crossroads of Transracial Parenting.”

Please join us for a talk by her plus a panel discussion with adult adoptees. Families who have completed a transracial adoption from another country or from the United States are encouraged to attend. In addition, families who are in the process of a transracial adoption are also welcome to attend.

This workshop will be held on Saturday, September 19, 2009 from 10:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. at the White Station Church of Christ, 1106 Colonial Road, Memphis. Registration starts at 9:30 a.m.
