About
The AWC is a collective of mental health and wellness professionals with a shared commitment to fostering healing and belonging in adoptee communities. Founded by licensed clinicians and intercountry transracial adoptees, we aim to expand access to trusted educational and healing resources. We center providers who are adoptees themselves or who bring deep experience working with adoptee communities, creating spaces of connection, learning, and care that honor the many paths to healing.
