Since 2009, ASIA Families has provided support and services to adult adoptees from Korea to help develop strong and healthy identities through a variety of programs: homeland tours to Korea, social activities, workshops and conferences designed for adult adoptees, and volunteer and leadership opportunities.

Korea Tour for Adult Adoptees and Families
Join us for an amazing opportunity for adult adoptees and families to visit their birth country. Led by ASIA Families' Executive Director, Grace Song, our Korea tour brings together our knowledge of the language, travel, culture, and international adoption experiences to offer you the trip of a lifetime.
From adult adoptee tour participants: "I would do this tour again in a heartbeat.... the best experience that I could have ever hoped for!" "For me, the highlight of this trip was meeting my birth father."
