In honor of Black History Month, ASA was proud to feature Isaac Etter, transracial adoptee and founder of Identity, on this month's YouTube episode. We firmly believe that all adoptive parents need comprehensive support and education on their journey, and we recognize that transracial adoption requires additional tools and knowledge. ![]()
![]()
If you choose the path of transracial adoption, please know that we are committed to providing you with the best possible education and support. This includes comprehensive post-placement education and ongoing support as your child grows, thanks to our partnership with Identity.![]()
![]()
We also want to emphasize the importance of incorporating Black history and culture into your everyday life, not just during Black History Month. Learning about and celebrating Black history should be an ongoing commitment for all adoptive families. 🖤![]()
