955.0. "Biological Parent Seeking Support" by FDCV06::THERIAULT () Mon Aug 05 1991 09:14

I am writing this note on behalf of a client, a woman, who is 
looking for a support group for biological parents seeking children 
previously put up for adoption.  This woman has just located her 
daughter, through an agency, whom she put up for adoption 22 years 
ago.  She is excited, nervous, uncertain how to proceed.  She'd like 
a support group of biological parents who are or have considered
contacting children they have located:  what works best?  how best
to contact?  involving the parents who adopted?  etc.

If you can help, contact me at FDCV06::THERIAULT.

Thanks in advance for any support!
