One of the things that has concerned me since I discovered has been the lack of recognition of Late Discovery among adoption professionals. Today as I was googling “Late Discovery” I found this page on the Child Welfare Information Gateway web site:
http://www.childwelfare.gov/adoption/search/latediscovery.cfm
This is heartening. The links provided are few, but they are good (and since this site is linked, I feel in good company). It’s interesting to read the child welfare world’s take on Late Discovery, which seems to minimize the impacts while accurately describing them. Much work to be done with that crowd…

Here is a link to a revised version of my article “Late Discovery: Identity Shift and Recovery” presented at the 30th Annual Conference of the American Adoption Congress on March 29, 2008.

Here’s an email from Helen Riley regarding her excellent article on Late Discovery:
Hi all,
My article on the ethical implications of the late discovery of adoptive status was recently published in Family Relationships Quarterly (on-line). I have attached a PDF and included the URL below. I thought I would send it around – please don’t hesitate to forward on if you know anyone who might be interested.
