Adoption Disclosure Movement

The Adoption Disclosure Movement is a social initiative advocating for the rights of adoptees to access information about their birth origins, including their biological parents and family history. It challenges laws that restrict access to adoption records, emphasizing the importance of identity, health information, and the emotional well-being of adoptees. Supporters argue that knowing one’s roots can aid in personal growth, foster connections, and address potential medical concerns. The movement seeks transparency and reform in adoption practices to balance privacy for birth parents with the rights of adoptees to learn about their heritage.
