The mission of Adopted Student Advisory Panel (ASAP) is to promote awareness about adoption. We educate adoptive parents, professionals, and non-professionals about how to best support adoptees and their families. We also aim to raise awareness about adoption and the experiences of adoptees. We have regular meetings where we talk about our experiences as adoptees and how those experiences have impacted our lives.
ASAP is participating in UMass Gives so that we can hold events to educate people about adoption as well as to support adoptees both from the UMass community and the Amherst area.
