Transracial Adoption

Transracial adoption refers to the practice where parents adopt a child of a different race or ethnicity than their own. This can happen for various reasons, including the desire to provide a loving home to a child in need, often in situations where there are few same-race adoptive families available. While it can offer children stability and support, transracial adoption also raises important considerations about cultural identity, racial differences, and the need for parents to understand and address the child's unique experiences related to race and culture throughout their upbringing.
