Group of adoptees looks to ‘TRACE’ roots
About three months ago, a group of adults who were adopted as children formally came together to lobby for changes in the way original birth records are denied to adoptees. They formed TRACE, The Rhode Island Adoption Coalition for Equality, which is advocating for a change in Rhode Island law that will allow adopted children to learn whom their birth parents are. The hearing on their amendment is scheduled for April 1 when it is brought before the House Judiciary Committee.
