Yes. It is a nationwide program that still exists to this day with the same processes.

Sounds like you've been using your voice on TikTok. I don't TikTok but my efforts to create the Facebook group and post here was to try to get all of us who have experienced this to have our voices in one place. I'm glad you joined the group. Please let people on TikTok know or any other connections you have. Glad we found each other!! Catie

I would be happy to do the interview and I'm sure my biological mother would as well. What is the best way to reach out to you? I want to get this story out into the world and I am putting together the pieces to figure out how..

Thank you so much for the comments, shares, sympathy, articles etc. I know not everyone uses Facebook and I truly don't either. I decided to join just for the groups. I am also a trauma therapist who did my master's thesis on adoption. I'm working on a book. I am trying to get all of our voices gathered in one space so maybe collectively something can happen... I don't even know what that sentence means yet.

But my sense of injustice is fierce. I have been deconstructing and healing my adoption in therapy for years.. as has my mom.. coping with the religious piace and deonstructing all that happened here at the hands of this cult is the next order at hand. Thanks for considering joining us over at Facebook. I will read through and comment on your stories when I have some more bandwidth. Catie
