A friend of mine notified me about the first Teen Chinese Adoptee Conference which is being held Friday – Sunday, July 25 – 27, 2008, at Chinese Children Adoption International Headquarters in Centennial, Colorado. It’s put together by the Chinese Children Adoption International which I believe is an adoption agency specializing in adoption from China.
The registration is $50 and is strictly for Chinese adoptees 13-19 years of age. Program highlights include: “Older adoptee panel discussion, creative projects, small group activities, mini Chinese Cultural Camp, Dragon Boat Festival, dance, games, and much more!”
Here are the details from their website.
