The Adoption and Fostering Podcast
Kids & Family:Parenting
Hello and welcome to conversations from the A and F podcast.
In this episode I speak to Esher, she is a late discovery step parent adoptee, foster carer and adopter. Esher shares her experience of discovering that who she thought was her father was not as a teenager and how that knowledge has unfolded through her life. She is also a foster carer and an adoptive parent and her personal experience has given her an informed understanding of the impact on identity of adoption and influences how she supports her child.
Esher now works to support others in terms of identity as well as working to develop understanding of racism. You can hear her speak at this event for the CVAA 'Anti racism in adoption assessment' here.
As always if you’ve experience of adoption, fostering or special guardianship from any perspective personal or professional and would like share that on the podcast please get in touch through Facebook or twitter or email us at AandFpodcast@gmail.com
