Nam Holtz, LMSW

Meggin (Nam) Holtz, LMSW, a transracially adopted person born in Korea, has been involved in adoption advocacy, awareness, and support for a decade. Her award-winning documentary film, Found In Korea 한국에서 발견된 , about birth search, identity, and adoption was created to serve as a point of entry for meaningful conversations about adoption and the impact of adoption, and is aimed at both youth and adults. Her film serves as the catalyst for this talk, in which she discusses what it is like when transracially adopted people go back to their country of origin, in search of their family and their roots. It’s a must-watch for anyone whose family was built via international adoption, but the resonance of not knowing anything about your origins and searching for where you truly come from is just as applicable for families built via domestic adoption.
