Sunny Reed

214 | Sunny Reed

We are thrilled to talk with Sunny Reed while she's right in the midst of her Ph.D. program developing a new transformational framework for transnational adoption. We believe her focus on connecting critical adoption research studies with existing child-focused and child-centering scholars is going to be revolutionary over the next decade. Haley and Sunny discuss some of what that means, as Sunny gives us a preview of her framework, but we also get personal talking about some health challenges she's had and the pain of working in advocacy when it all comes back to our personal experiences with loss.
