Evan B. Donaldson Adoption Institute

I know it has been mentioned on this site before ...a friend heard the director on NPR and sent me a link to their site and it's filled with studies about adoption and on many of the subjects that interest me.

Was just wondering if these studies are controversial, if they are legit in the adoption community, etc...

Before I actually READ something LOL I want to know if people here think it's worthwhile.

Thanks for any opinions!

Evan B. Is a great institution. Of course I am a bit biased because I have had input into a number of their position papers.

I don't agree with every little thing they do, but then I have differences of opinion with some of the people in adoption I admire the most.

Thanks Brenda. Glad to get your opinion (in particular) and looking forward to learning from it.
