DNAngels Search & SupportDNAngels Search & Support

Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/dnangelssupportgroup/

We formed this group as a safe space for anyone in need of support after a DNA discovery, and/or assistance in their search for their biological family. We realize that surprise DNA test results impact more than just the person who tested, therefore we happily welcome both known and “found” relatives, as we believe that everyone benefits from the perspectives from “the other side”. It is a judgement free space where we can all support one another, share advice based on personal experience, and ensure that no one walks this path alone. Be mindful that no one’s story is exactly the same and we’re all in different stages of our journey.


DNAngels Search & SupportAdoption Search & Support by DNAngels

Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/adoptionsupportdnangels/

We formed this group as a safe space for Adoptees, where we can all support one another and heal from each other. This group is for the adoptee only, but we happily welcome anyone impacted by adoption in our DNAngels Search & Support group. We are a judgement free space, where Adoptee’s voices are privileged and can be heard. We hope that, collectively, we can all learn from our personal experiences. Be mindful that no one’s story is exactly the same and we’re all in different stages of our journey.


DNA Surprises Support GroupDNA Surprises Support Group

Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1798909400175879/

This group is a safe place to come and talk/discuss your surprise DNA results from Ancestry, 23andMe, and other services. Maybe you found out you are NPE or you have a sister or brother you never knew about! Some people even identify out about an aunt or uncle or even a grandparent. It could have happened to you personally or to a loved one. For some of us it’s exciting news…but for others it’s confusing and devastating. Either way, let’s talk about it and try to heal.

Hiraeth Only: Longing For HomeHiraeth Only: Longing For Home

Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/HiraethOnlyLongingforHome/

This group was formed for Adoptees, NPE’s (Non Paternal Event), DC’s (Donor Conceived), LDA’s (Late Discovery Adoptees) as well as members of their families. It is a place to share in confidence your thoughts and feelings with others that “get it”. Whatever stage of the journey you are in currently, all members are able to speak freely and without shame or judgment. This group was designed for everyone to come together and learn about their similarities and differences. In addition to online support, the group also offers private support meetings every Wednesday evening and Saturday afternoon via zoom.


We Are Donor ConceivedWe Are Donor Conceived

Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/wearedonorconceived/

Website: https://www.wearedonorconceived.com/

This group was launched in 2016 as a resource center for donor conceived people around the globe. It’s also a place where donor conceived people can share their stories with each other and the general public in order to inspire greater understanding about the unique challenges that they face.

If you are a donor-conceived individual looking to connect with others in the same unique situation, please join their private Facebook group, exclusively for donor-conceived people.


NPE Alicia GroupNPE Alicia Group

Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/879235302445225/

**We are proud to support one of our very own clients, who is writing a memoir about her personal NPE journey in hopes of one day helping others like herself.

This group welcomes NPEs, as well as family members and friends of NPEs. They also welcome those who desire to learn more about the experience of the NPE individual and how this affects those closest to them.

NPE Alicia has a dream that one day more NPEs will have a story of forgiveness, acceptance, healing and love. This will be made possible by allowing all individuals impacted by a non-paternal event (NPE) to share their side of the story honestly and come to a place of freedom in sharing their truth.
