ADoptee Only Chats

What are they

The chats are a platform that allows adoptees to meet other adoptees and discuss relevant topics regarding the adoptee experience. Our adoptee chats are held once a month for our adoptee-only  Facebook group and are run by our programs coordinator. They occur via Facebook Messenger (on a chat made the night-of) and adoptees can attend by selecting “going” on the event in the group. The chats take full-advantage of our e-community and are made to be accessible for all of our members. CCI aims to create a community that appreciates our common beginning. Our adoptee-only chats make a large group feel a bit smaller.
