\u00bfQu\u00e9 te gustar\u00eda compartir sobre tu experiencia?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Fui adoptada a trav\u00e9s de Spence-Chapin de Corea del Sur cuando ten\u00eda 10 meses y crec\u00ed en el norte de Nueva Jersey en una familia transracial con mi mam\u00e1, mi pap\u00e1 y mi hermana mayor (la hija biol\u00f3gica de mis padres). Como no me parec\u00eda a mi familia, siempre supe que era adoptada, pero para bien o para mal, mi adopci\u00f3n y mi origen \u00e9tnico coreano no fueron un problema. No fue algo que escond\u00ed, pero tampoco algo que celebr\u00e9.<\/p>\n

En 2003, justo despu\u00e9s de cumplir 21calle<\/sup> cumplea\u00f1os, regres\u00e9 a Corea con mis padres para conocer a mi familia biol\u00f3gica, incluida mi madre biol\u00f3gica. Durante este tiempo, Spence-Chapin fue fundamental en mi reuni\u00f3n. Fueron incre\u00edblemente comprensivos y profesionales, ofrecieron orientaci\u00f3n emocional y coordinaci\u00f3n log\u00edstica, ayudando a que un evento decisivo en la vida se desarrollara de la mejor manera posible.<\/p>\n

\u00bfCu\u00e1ndo se conect\u00f3 con el programa de tutor\u00eda de Spence-Chapin?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Despu\u00e9s de regresar de Corea, quer\u00eda \u201cdevolverle algo\u201d a Spence-Chapin, as\u00ed que cuando me enter\u00e9 de la Programa de tutor\u00eda en adopci\u00f3n<\/a><\/strong>, parec\u00eda una gran opci\u00f3n. Pas\u00e9 10 a\u00f1os como mentor y podr\u00eda seguir hablando de las actividades divertidas que realizamos durante la tutor\u00eda, algunas por primera vez, a pesar de haber vivido en el \u00e1rea casi toda mi vida. Visitamos museos, fuimos a Chelsea Piers, tuvimos eventos de formaci\u00f3n de equipos en Central Park, participamos en lecciones de cocina privadas, competimos en b\u00fasquedas del tesoro en Grand Central Station y m\u00e1s.<\/p>\n

\u00bfCu\u00e1les son algunas de las conclusiones de las relaciones que forj\u00f3 mientras era mentor en el programa?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Permanec\u00ed en el programa de tutor\u00eda durante el tiempo que cada a\u00f1o tra\u00eda nuevas experiencias, amistades y crecimiento personal. Estaba comprometido no solo con los ni\u00f1os a quienes vi literalmente crecer en el programa, sino tambi\u00e9n con el viaje personal que realic\u00e9 junto con ellos. En esa d\u00e9cada descubr\u00ed mi identidad como adoptado, y m\u00e1s espec\u00edficamente como adoptado coreano. Me encontr\u00e9 pensando en mi adopci\u00f3n en mi propio tiempo, no s\u00f3lo durante nuestros eventos. Me encontr\u00e9 hablando de mi adopci\u00f3n con mi familia, amigos e incluso colegas. Aprend\u00ed que amigos que hab\u00eda conocido durante casi toda mi vida siempre hab\u00edan sentido curiosidad por mi adopci\u00f3n, pero como nunca mencion\u00e9 el tema, pensaron que me sent\u00eda inc\u00f3modo hablando de ello. Ahora me siento c\u00f3modo y orgulloso de compartir mis experiencias como adoptado, ya sea que surja el problema.<\/p>\n

\u00bfQu\u00e9 informaci\u00f3n puedes compartir con otros mentores potenciales sobre lo que es ser un mentor?\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h3>\n

La tutor\u00eda brinda a los mentores y aprendices un foro para discutir la adopci\u00f3n entre personas que simplemente "lo entienden". Me sorprend\u00edan constantemente las preguntas y observaciones que compart\u00edan los aprendices. Muchos de los ni\u00f1os sent\u00edan mucha m\u00e1s curiosidad y consideraci\u00f3n acerca de la adopci\u00f3n que yo a su edad. Si bien todos tenemos la adopci\u00f3n como hilo conductor, la historia de cada uno es \u00fanica; y me encant\u00f3 escuchar todas estas diversas experiencias y perspectivas.<\/p>\n

Cuando reflexiono sobre mi tiempo en el programa de tutor\u00eda, primero pienso en las personas. Las amistades que todav\u00eda mantengo tanto con mentores como con aprendices, pero tambi\u00e9n con la persona en la que me he convertido. Apoyo y aprecio el prop\u00f3sito de Spence-Chapin de ser mentor y espero escuchar m\u00e1s sobre el \u00e9xito continuo del programa, ya que ha tenido un gran impacto en mi vida. Cuando comenc\u00e9 la tutor\u00eda en 2008, pens\u00e9 que me unir\u00eda para retribuir y, al final, recib\u00ed mucho.<\/p>\n
