Upcoming Virtual Events
At the Adoptee Mentoring Society, we host virtual events that foster connection, reflection, and learning within the adoptee community. Whether you’re tuning in to a Fireside Chat or joining an Info Session, we invite you to participate, listen, and share.
AMS Fireside Chats
Our Fireside Chats provide an opportunity to listen to guests engage in a moderated conversation on an adoption-related topic.
A $10 donation is suggested to support this programming.
Information Sessions
Are you curious about the Adoptee Mentoring Society? Are you thinking about becoming a mentor? Just want to learn more?
Join us for a 1-hour virtual info session to explore what the Adoptee Mentoring Society is all about. Whether you're an adoptee interested in finding or becoming a mentor, you're a community member looking to get involved, or simply curious about our mission—join us for this casual Q & A session!
Our Event Values
-
Connection
Our events are not just informational; they are relational. They invite you to listen with your whole self, with open minds, open hearts, and the humility to learn from lived experience.
-
Reflection
Listening to adoptees requires more than presence—it calls for pause. When we slow down and truly consider what is being shared, we confront our own assumptions, biases, and blind spots.
-
Learning
At our events, we invite you to set aside what you think you know and become a student again. Adoptee narratives expand the conversation on identity, belonging, race, grief, and joy in ways textbooks cannot teach.
