N° 266 – RACINE project (ISS France), feedback on the support groups and reflections on their benefits

We first introduced you to the RACINE project in the November 2021 newsletter (2021-256), in an interview with Jimmy Messineo, Coordinator of ISS France. The RACINE project was launched by ISS France in September 2021 with funding from the Intercountry Adoption Mission (MAI). In this article, Dr Fanny Cohen Herlem, registered child psychiatrist, psychoanalyst and counselling psychiatrist with the ISS/IRC, and Jimmy Messineo, who ran the support groups for the project, take a critical look back and share their thoughts on how the groups contributed to the project.
