Lora K. Joy/Lora Alegria. Lora is a domestic, same race adoptee. She is fully estranged from her adoptive family and reunited with both maternal and paternal biological family. In 2022, she legally changed her name back to her birth name – Lora’s biological mom reclaimed her through an adult adoption. Lora has authored 3 illustrated books and a blog at www.myadopteetruth.com. Lora is excited to participate in the panel to show the power and growth in healing we can experience when we prioritize our own emotional needs.
