What to expect
Hosted by UMeDNA, these online workshops provide an introduction to the world of providers, systems, and pathways to conducting DNA searches for biological family.
Over the course of the 2-3 hour session, you will learn:
- The services available for testing and matching and how they interact.
- What to look for and avoid when contributing your DNA to databases.
- The systems in place to store, distribute, and search for DNA matches.
- The breadth and limitations of different searching services.
Originally under the general umbrella of VNFS, UMeDNA was founded in 2023 in order to provide more targeted services for adoptees and birth families seeking to find family through DNA searching.
