Truth and Reconciliation for the Adoption  Community of Korea

As many as 200,000 South Korean children have been sent The Adoption Program    As many as 200,000 South Korean children have been sent to 15 Western countries since 1953. That means 1 million parents and grandparents have been separated from a child or grandchild. South Korea is the oldest mass-adoption program in the world, and it continues even today, with over 1,000 children sent overseas every year.  

Building Our Society   Many adoptees now want to participate in Korean society, even if they are not in contact with their Korean families. We envision a world where the adoption community and Korean society have a mutual understanding allowing them to heal and create a bright collective future.
