A wife, a mother, a grandmother, a Michigan native, an entrepreneur and above all, a God-fearing woman, Alicia Williams has done it all. From serving as a board member of the National Association of Adoptees and Parents, Alicia works diligently to support and advocate for this community. As an LDA (Late Discovery Adoptee), she has learned the importance of being vocal and advocating for such an overlooked community. As an adoptive parent herself, she later learned some "do's and don't" of adoption. So much of her views came later after she realized her husband knew about her adoption before she did herself, but when gifted with a DNA test for Christmas to do more research of the family tree, you learned your tree is not at all connected to the tree you've always known about. This could only mean one thing-your DNA test results are wrong because, for sure, if you were adopted, you'd know before the age of 53.
