I'm originally from the Grand Rapids area. I still have family there and visit regularly. I love the West Michigan area.

Just want to let everyone know that there is an excellent search and support group that meets twice a month in the Grand Rapids area. Open to all connected by adoption. The information about the group (and contact info.) is posted in 2 places. Community Center forum catagory under Adoption Support Groups and Search & Reunion forum catagory under Michigan Adoption Records. Very good group and very helpful!
