Security for Families Through Confirmatory Adoption in Vermont
Status: Victory
Victory! On May 22, 2205, Gov. Phil Scott signed H98 into law. The new law takes effect July 1.
GLAD Law submitted testimony in support of VT H98, “An act relating to confirmatory adoptions.” This bill makes the adoption process more streamlined and efficient for parents seeking an adoption decree to confirm an existing parent-child relationship. Confirmation of an existing parent-child relationship is vitally important to protect families forged through assisted reproduction, including LGBTQ families.
