Would you support an inquiry into forced adoptions from the 1950s to 1970s?
Hi neighbours. It was a privilege to hear Josette Ible tell us her story of her miraculous escape as an unwed mother from the 'baby scoop' era of the 1950s to 1970s.

Were you an unwed mother, forced to give up your baby for adoption, and would like to share your story? Email kendall.hutt@stuff.co.nz.
