As a social worker, I do not believe in disorders or pathologizing people based on a checklist of symptoms. I am excited to announce that I am accepting new clients. #AdopteeTwitter #AdopteeVoices #SuicidePrevention

Addiction, suicide & mental health struggles all make sense. What does not make sense is how we react to people who are struggling. Adopted/displaced people are over represented in addiction/suicide/mental health struggles. #AdopteeTwitter #AdopteeVoices
People respect and honor other people’s biology unless they’re adopted, fostered and displaced people. They get mad, lie, hide the truth and are downright abusive if we want to know who are family is and where we come from. #adopteetwitter #AdopteeVoices #SuicidePrevention

If adoption and foster care are not your lived experience do not write stories/movies about it. If you’re a fosterer or adopter do not create content about a lived experience you have not had. #AdopteeTwitter #AdopteeVoices #SocialWorkMonth #SuicidePrevention #SuicidePostvention
Poverty, mental health, and struggles with substance use SHOULD NOT be criminalized. #AdopteeTwitter #AdopteeVoices #SocialWorkMonth #SuicidePrevention #MSW
Adoption is pathological. Stop pathologizing adopted and displaced people. There is nothing wrong, abnormal or pathological about them. #adopteeTwitter #AdopteeVoices #SocislWorkMonth #SuicidePrevention #SuicidePostvention #MSW

I decided to add a reel about what it’s like to be internationally displaced and trafficked. If this is your lived experience, please feel free to share in the comments.
Can you imagine if we talked to non-adopted people the way we talk to adopted snd displaced people? #adopteeTwitter #AdopteeVoices #SuicidePrevention #SuicidePostvention #MSW
It so happens that Lina Vanegas (She/her) is one of our favorite speakers. Crystal clear, evocative and powerful. 🔥🎯
