UPCOMING EVENTS

VOICES: BIPOC ADOPTEES AUTHOR READING
Join us for a powerful evening with five BIPOC adoptee authors sharing their work and engaging in conversation. More than a reading, this event creates space for storytelling, connection, and empowerment—reclaiming narratives often overlooked or overshadowed. Through spoken word and discussion, we’ll elevate adoptee voices, challenge dominant narratives, and build community.
​Featuring: Leah Altman, KE Garland, Matan Gold, Dani Janae, and Kailee Pedersen
