ORIGIN
The Adoptee Group began it’s journey in March 2021 by a group of adoptees who were concerned of the level of mental health challenges among adoptees.
// The Adoptee Group (TAG) completed a business plan outlining projects that generate funds to advance the life of an adoptee. The organization received ‘Gold’ status from Guidestar.
// A Handbook to Korea book was completed in June of 2021 and a second edition that acknowledges the current COVID-19 protocols was released in March 2022. This is a resource for adoptees planning to travel to Korea for the first time.
// KAD Village was launched in November of 2021. This is a web-based directory that serves as a resource for Korean adoptees (KADS).
// In December 2021, TAG Cares gave the first adoptee a TAG Cares award.
// In May of 2022, TAG published the BEFORE ADOPTION…There was Dr. Cho, the English version of the Korean book authored by Dr. Cho.
// In January of 2023, the organization donated the proceeds from the sales of Dr. Cho’s book to Holt Ilsan Center Korea to support medical care for the residents.
