Kim Rankin, her mother Karen Chaston, and The Emotional Fingerprint of an Adoptee are honoured to be featured in

the Autumn 2025 edition of The Benevolent Society’s Post Adoption Newsletter (pages 9–10).

This feature highlights Kim’s heartfelt reflection written after attending

the 12th anniversary of the National Apology for Forced Adoption Practices alongside her mother.

Through her powerful words, Kim brings awareness to the enduring impact of forced adoption,

the lifelong search for identity and belonging, and the deep healing that can occur when understanding and reconnection are nurtured.
