Who We Are

NPA is comprised of transracial transnational adoptees representing a variety of countries of origin and professional backgrounds working in Minneapolis/St. Paul. We meet bimonthly to move a larger agenda forward at the intersections of adoptee rights and social justice.​

Our Mission

​NPA’s mission is to strengthen, cultivate, and improve the lives of adoptees by building community power. Through solution-focused action, we advance adoptee justice by telling our own stories and collectively working towards systemic change within adoption.

Our Vision

NPA's vision is that all adoptees feel empowered and have access to history, knowledge, fair policy, records and positive health & relationships.

Join us for ​a virtual rally in support of the Indian Child Welfare Act!

For over 40 years, the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) has protected American Indian and Alaska Native kids by keeping them in the care of extended family or tribes whenever possible. On November 9, a small group of opponents in Haaland v. Brackeen will argue in front of the Supreme Court that those protections should be taken away. If opponents succeed in dismantling ICWA, they will have also cleared the way for a larger attack on Native families, Native land, and tribal sovereignty.
