We’d like to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who showed up yesterday in spite of the miserable rain. Your energy and commitment made the day.
Thank you to the team who kept the Adoptee Rights Demonstration Twitter stream updated through the day with text and pictures, and the followers who re-tweeted updates.
Special thank you’s to the City of Philadelphia Managing Director’s Office, Independence National Historic Park Special Events Office, and above all, The Civil Affairs Office of the Philadelphia Police Department for their courtesy, professionalism and support.
The event received before and after coverage at The Philadelphia Inquirer:
Adoption-records advocates to protest in Phila.
Adoptees protest for access to original birth certificates
We’ll be in Philadelphia though Thursday and barring any technical issues will try to keep sending updates via Twitter from the Convention Center. We’d like to thank everyone staying on to staff the booth during the remainder of the Annual Summit. Safe travels to everyone heading home today and Thursday.
Thank you again to everyone who came and all who supported over the past eight months!
