About me
Elliot Bliss, a Korean adoptee, experienced a profound shift in his outlook and priorities following his diagnosis with a rare blood cancer in 2023. The challenges of navigating cancer treatment without access to his medical history underscored for him the unique barriers adoptees face and reshaped how he views his relationships with family and friends. These experiences deepened his commitment to supporting adoptees, advocating for adoptee rights and transparency, and resuming his search for his birth mother. As Supervisor of Adoptee Programs at Holt International, Elliot draws on his insights to develop impactful programs and resources for adoptees.
