The Open Adoption Project

Welcome to the Open Adoption Project podcast we are Lanette and Shaun Nelson! This introductory episode gives background on who we are and the story behind this podcast’s creation. We share the purpose of the show and our own connections to adoption. We also share thoughts and tips for listeners to get more from the show and how this podcast has changed our own perspectives and perceptions about adoption.

This podcast is a safe place for anyone in the adoption constellation. We welcome any and all adoptee and birth/first parent perspectives while advocating for adoptee-centered practices.
