Lost Daughters: Writing Adoption From a Place of Empowerment and Peace;

This anthology is a collection of writings by the authors of the Lost Daughters blog. Lost Daughters is an independent, collaborative writing project founded in 2011 in an effort to give an accessible writing platform for adopted women. Boasting nearly 30 authors at this time, Lost Daughters is written and edited entirely by adopted women, several of whom balance multiple roles in adoption and foster care along with being adopted. The Lost Daughters mission is to bring readers the perspectives and narratives of adopted women, and to highlight their strength, resiliency, and wisdom. We aim to critically discuss the positives and negatives of the adoption institution from a place of empowerment and peace.
