This page is devoted to links to information about issues that may arise after the initial year or so at home. We hope to have links to as many resources for all types of general information on post-adoption issues. We are especially interested in information relating to trans-racial adoptions with Asian children and US/European parents. If you know of a website or have an article that should be linked to this page, please email the webmaster with the link or article at: JimLWeaver@aol.com.
