On July 21, 2020, Governor Raimondo signed the Rhode Island Uniform Parentage Act into law. The Rhode Island Uniform Parentage Act updates state law to clarify who can be a parent and how to establish parentage. These critical reforms recognize the diversity of families in Rhode Island and ensure that all children can have their legal parentage established regardless of the circumstances of their birth.

Join us and learn about this new law before it goes into effect on 1/1/21.
