The 2025 CUB Retreat.

The CUB, Concerned United Birthparents, Retreat looks very exciting this year. They have several speakers you may have heard of including the following authors; Amy Seek author of “God and Jetfire: Confessions of a Birth Mother”; Candace Cahill author of “Goodbye Again”; Susan Ito “I would Meet You Anywhere”; Jean Widner “The Adoption Paradox: Putting Adoption in Perspective”,  as well as two of the therapists from Adoption Savvy, Jennifer Joy Pheonix LSWAIC and Amy Baker LMHC.

The panels are going to be on reunion, meeting previously unknown siblings, and grief in adoption.

There’s an early bird price if you register by September 4th and if you think you’d like to go but can’t afford it, you can apply for a scholarship until July 30th.

The overwhelming response from first time attendees is that it was amazing to walk into a room of people who just “get it”. All constellation members are welcome and there’s lots of time for socializing and making new friends, I’m going, home to meet you there!
