Watch the Video! Voices Unheard: Real Adoptee Stories
November 28, 2023
On November 28, 2023, BPAR hosted our fourth live creative forum for adult adoptees in Cambridge.
We welcome you to watch the video recording from the livestream version below. You'll see that our adoptee speakers provided a night of powerful, honest storytelling through poetry, short stories, and more.
Your donation supports BPAR's mission to
provide specialized trauma-informed individual and group therapeutic care and culturally sensitive support.
We connect people to post adoption resources and educate the public about the impacts of adoption.
Through our services, BPAR invites those touched by adoption to join our community
in an environment that encourages lifelong healing.

Voices Unheard is a program of Boston Post Adoption Resources (BPAR).
As a key part of our mission we promote adoptee voices through
our self-reflective journal, workshops, and live events for storytellers.

“This guided journal is long overdue. It offers an adoptee the opportunity to carefully examine their perspectives and feelings about their life and to clarify what is truth.”
