“Currently not enough is being done to make sure adoptive parents receive continued education and counseling in transracial adoption to help support them as their child ages. There is some focus on introductory information like haircare and navigating the adoption system, but little information is provided about identity formation, cultural immersion, and anti-racism work; this type of information needs to be prioritized.” — Melissa Guida-Richards
