Teen Socials (age 13-17)

Adoptees of Chicago is proud to host socials for teen adoptees to meet other teen adoptees and build lasting friendships. Whether it’s a movie night or an afternoon at the zoo, our teen socials are meant to be a fun, relaxed place for adoptees to socialize. While parents are welcome to socialize nearby, this is a teen’s opportunity to spend time with other teen adoptees. We hope that Adoptees of Chicago is one place where teens can find connections and feel less alone in their experiences.

january social

It’s 2021 and it’s the perfect time to eat pizza for dinner! We’re going to kick back, relax, and let conversation flow. It’s a low-key gathering to talk about how January treated us and what we think the year will hold!

"Adoptees of Chicago is a safe place to express yourself properly without worrying about being judged or criticized. It is not only a place to talk about your emotions; it is a place to have fun. It is evident how much precision and care is put into each activity. The coordinators give above-and-beyond effort to ensure our experience is the best it can be, and they always prevail. Thank you Adoptees of Chicago, for providing me with a place to feel welcome and a place that feels like home."  - Jenna K, Teen

"My teen daughter has enjoyed being a part of this awesome group. She has felt supported by the coordinators and loves to hang out with other adoptees. There are such a variety of planned events and my daughter always comes home and tells me how much she has enjoyed each and every activity. It is obvious that much thought and consideration goes into each planned outing. We look forward to participating in future hangouts and are so grateful that this group exists for adoptees." - Chris K, Parent
