A NEW APPROACH TO
ADOPTION DISCLOSURE IN ONTARIO
NOT ALL ADOPTED CHILDREN GROW UP WANTING TO KNOW
ABOUT THEIR BIRTH PARENTS.
BUT FOR THOSE WHO DO. THE PROCESS HAS OFTEN BEEN FRUS-
TRATING AND INCONCLUSIVE.
THE SAME IS TRUE FOR PARENTS. GRANDPARENTS. BROTHERS
OR SISTERS SEARCHING FOR A CHILD PLACED FOR ADOPTION
YEARS AGO.
ON JULY 6. 1987, AMENDMENTS TO ADOPTION LEGISLATION
CHANGED THE CONDITIONS AND PROCEDURES FOR OBTAINING
ADOPTION INFORMATION IN ONTARIO.
NON -IDENTIFYING INFORM TION. IF AVAILABLE. SUCH AS THE
BIRTH FAMILY'S BACK. =' u D AND MEDICAL HISTORY. WILL BE RE-
LEASED ON REQUEST TO ADULT ADOPTED PERSONS (THOSE 18 OR
OLDER): AND INFORMATION ABOUT THE ADOPTIVE FAMILY'S BACK-
GROUND WILL BE GIVEN TO ADULT BIRTH RELATIVES. UPON REQUEST
INFORMATION THAT REVEALS THE IDENTITY OF AN ADULT ADOP-
TEE OR A BIRTH RELATIVE WILL BE SHARED ONLY IF BOTH PARTIES
HAVE VOLUNTARILY ENTERED THEIR NAMES WITH THE ADOPTION
DISCLOSURE REGISTER AND CONSENTED TO DISCLOSURE. THE
CONSENT OF ADOPTIVE PARENTS IS NO LONGER REQUIRED
IF BIRTH RELATIVES HAVE NOT REGISTERED. AN ADULT ADOPTEE
CAN REQUEST A SEARCH HOWEVER. CONFIDENTIALITY IS PRO-
TECTED THROUGHOUT IF LOCATED. BIRTH RELATIVES CAN SIMPLY
DECIDE NOT TO HAVE THEIR IDENTITIES MADE KNOWN.
THE ISSUES AND EMOTIONS SURROUNDING ADOPTION INFOR-
MATION ARE COMPLEX. SO PROFESSIONAL ADVICE IS PROVIDED AT
EVERY STAGE. THE PROCESS WILL ALSO TAKE TIME. SINCE A
LARGE NUMBER OF REQUESTS ALREADY EXIST
ALL THE NEW PROCEDURES AND SERVICES ARE OUTLINED IN A
FREE PAMPHLET. AVAILABLE IN ENGLISH AND IN FRENCH
