In 1992, the state of Arizona created a means for families separated by adoption to make contact or reunite with one another. Legislation was passed (ARS § 8-134) that allows Confidential Intermediaries to access sealed adoption records for the purpose of assisting in the search process. This option applies to adoptions finalized in the state of Arizona only. Other states may have a mechanism to assist in your search. Contact the state in which your adoption was finalized for more information.
