Working to restore adoptees' access to their original identity - because identity matters!
 
In Washington State, adult adoptees are denied access to their original birth certificates. They are the only class of citizens in Washington who are not able to see the documents indicating their birth names and, therefore, their heritage and identity.

It is time for Washington to join those states who have shed the shame and secrecy that has surrounded adoption for the last 70 years, and give adult adoptees the same rights as all other citizens!
