Based on a hugely successful US model, the Seven Core Issues in Adoption is the first conceptual framework of its kind to offer a unifying lens that was inclusive of all individuals touched by the adoption experience.
 
The Seven Core Issues are Loss, Rejection, Shame/Guilt, Grief, Identity, Intimacy, and Mastery/Control. The book expands the model to be inclusive of adoption and all forms of permanency: adoption, foster care, kinship care, donor insemination and surrogacy. Attachment and trauma are integrated with the Seven Core Issues model to address and normalize the additional tasks individuals and families will encounter.
 
The book views the Seven Core Issues from a range of perspectives including: multiracial, LGBTQ, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, African-American, International,
openness, search and reunion, and others. This essential guide introduces each Core Issue, its' impact on individuals, offering techniques for growth and healing.
