Founded in 1998, the KAAN mission is to improve the lives of Korean-born adoptees and all inter-country adoptees by connecting the community and providing opportunities for dialogue, education, and support. The 2024 conference is in Chicago.

"Stories We Tell Ourselves & Others" is for adoptees only. For many adoptees, our journey requires processing and talking about those parts of our stories that are hard to acknowledge even to ourselves, let alone to others. Glenn Morey, adoptee and creator of the Side by Side documentary film project, and Melinda McCulloch, adoptee and clinical therapist, will explore the fraught terrain of our most closely held and rarely revealed feelings—fear, shame, anger, alienation, and more—through the lenses of clinical work with adoptees and the raw and unfiltered adoptee stories of Side by Side.

"Stories Adoptees Rarely Tell" is for adoptive parents and families only. How much do you think you know about the adopted child or adult in your life, including their most challenging experiences and difficult feelings—aspects of their lives that are hard for them to acknowledge to themselves, let alone to others? Glenn Morey, adoptee and creator of the Side by Side documentary film project, and Melinda McCulloch, adoptee and clinical therapist will explore the feelings that are often unexpressed and unknown to parents, partners, and even best friends—fear, shame, anger, alienation— examining the raw and unfiltered adoptee stories of Side by Side, and the role of clinical therapy.
