HTBA bridges the gap in support for adoptees

 

Over 3/4rds (76%) of adopted people have found it ‘difficult’ or ‘very difficult’ to find support.

Adopted people reported ~60% reduction in feelings of isolation after engaging with HTBA.

83% of respondents said being part of HTBA had validated their experiences as an adopted person.

Meet Claire

Claire started How To Be Adopted after finding no resources for adopted people online and limited resources in real life.

Claire’s passion is connecting adoptees to share stories and tips on coping as an adopted person in a non-adopted world.
