SUMMARY:Adoptee Identity Formation: Nurturing Belonging\, Resilience\, Sense of Self
DESCRIPTION:How does an adopted person come to understand who they are — across family\, culture\, race\, attachment\, and life’s turning points?   \nJoin the AFFGS community for an afternoon with Samson Irish-Lodge\, local therapist whose work is shaped by his own experience growing up in an adoptive family. Drawing from developmental psychology and lived experience\, Samson will explore how identity evolves across childhood and adolescence — and how families can actively support belonging\, resilience\, and an authentic sense of self.   \nTogether\, we’ll consider:   \n\nHow identity forms at the intersection of family systems\, culture\, race\, and attachment  \nThe impact of life transitions on self-concept and belonging  \nPractical ways caregivers can nurture healthy identity development over time  \n\nCome curious. Leave with deeper insight — and tangible tools to support the adoptees in your life.   \nBabes-in-arms welcome\, free childcare provided.
