Impact of Transracial Adoptions on the Adopted Child and Adoptive Family (DVD)

This video identifies how transracial adoption impacts the child's feelings about her/himself, the birth family and community of origin; the child's interaction with the adopted family and adopted community; the nuclear and extended family's reaction to the adopted child; and how the family can manage the impact of a transracial adoption.

There are three other videos in this series: "The Special Needs of Minority Children Adopted Transracially," "Parenting Tasks in Transracial Adoptions," and "Assessing a Family's Ability to Adopt Transracially."
