Security for Families Through Confirmatory Adoption in Vermont
Status: Pending
Update: H98 unanimously passed the House on February 20, 2025. The bill will now move to the Senate.
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.
