The Donaldson Adoption Institute's mission is to provide leadership that improves adoption laws, policies and practices - through sound research, education and advocacy - in order to better the lives of everyone touched by adoption. In order to achieve its goals, the Institute conducts and synthesizes research; offers education to inform public opinion; promotes ethical practices and legal reforms; and works to translate policy into action. Specifically, the Institute improves the lives of people touched by adoption through many avenues: - Offering lawmakers reliable information and practical perspectives to improve adoption laws - Providing the media with a trusted source of information - Encouraging employer support for adoption - Reducing barriers that impede adoption of children who need permanent families - Researching policies and practices that affect adoption - Educating policymakers and the public about the importance of giving adopted people access to information about their origins - Developing a legal framework to ensure access to genetic information and a clear delineation of parental responsibility for children born through reproductive technology - Promoting ethical standards for adoption professionals Learn more at adoptioninstitute.org/index.php |
