Prime Time Reunion Shows
CW's critically acclaimed Life Unexpected premiered Jan. 18, 2010. The main character, Lux (whose name means "light"), has spent her sixteen year life in foster care. Her mother relinquished her at age 16 under the belief she would be adopted, but a congenital heart condition made her difficult to adopt. Her birth father knows nothing about her until she finds him in the course of seeking emancipation from her foster parents.
Troy Dunn, known as The Locator , appeared on Oprah! February 18, 2010 to discuss the importance of finding closure in lost relationships. Dunn got started in the search and reunion business by helping his mother, an adoptee, search for her roots.
ABC's Find My Family ran for a six-week initial contract at the end of 2009. The show's website said it was returning in 2010, but has vanished from abc.go.com with no further information.Find My Family co-hosts Tim Green and Lisa Joyner are both adoptees who have experienced the challenges, heartaches and joys of their own search and reunion process.

New Book
AIS-CTC extends our warmest congratulations to our own Nikki McCaslin on her new book!
Finding Our Place: 100 Memorable Adoptees, Fostered Persons and Orphanage Alumni is a meticulously researched collection of historical portraits told from the perspective of someone who is both an adoptee and adoptive parent.
Biographies include people who made their mark in art, music, film, philosophy, politics, literature and science throughout time.
Details which might be overlooked by someone outside the adoption triad make this book a unique testament to the human spirit in the face of obstacles and adversity.
