Veterans and Adoptees
A new group has come up on my radar. I am thrilled that such a group exists. I had only met a few of us online. I know many adoptees but the combination of veteran and adoptees are a little more hard to find. I am one of those. I have fought for my country in Desert Storm. I am also an adoptee. This group addresses those particular issues. I as an American citizen who has done her civic duty as such is having her rights violated by the adoption industry and the states.
Introducing AWOL - Adoptees Without Liberty. This group is not just reserved for adoptees. It also includes birth parents and adoptive parents who have served as well. We are wanting our rights as American citizens restored. We should not be considered incompetent by reason of adoption. So please visit their Guestbook and give a big boost of support to them. The state legislators need to hear that adoptees are not just your average joes. We are also GI Joes and GI Janes.

I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Mr. Franklin last July 21, outside the Philadelphia Convention Center. He was there for the same reason we were - to advocate for OBC access for all adult adoptees.
