This registry is ONLY
for members of the adoption triad who are
searching in the state of Washington. This means
either the adoptee was born in Washington;
the adoption was finalized in Washington;
or the adoptee, birthfamily, or adoptive family
is somehow connected to Washington.
- Search Angels are
individuals who volunteer their personal time and
resources to help members of the adoption triad
with their searches. Some can help throughout the
entire state, and some are limited to a specific
city or county. Assistance can range from a
simple phone and address lookup to more complex
research through private or membership-only
databases. Search Angels generally offer their
services free of charge, but may request small
donations or reimbursement to help cover
out-of-pocket expenses.
- Every member of the
adoption triad has a story to tell - emotions,
experiences, and mistakes to share with those who
are following behind us. They may be an adoptee
searching for their roots, a birthparent
searching for the child they relinquished or had
taken away, a brother or sister looking for the
sibling they never met, or an adoptive parent who
wishes to open new doors for their adopted child.
Whoever they are... whatever the reason... these
are our stories.
- The featured searches on these pages will change each month. They will be posted according to the adoptee's birth month. If you are involved in a search for an adoptee who was born in the current month, please review this page. The person you are searching for may also be searching for you.
- Dedicated to adoptees
and birthparents who died before they had the
chance to be reunited with their loved ones who
were lost because of adoption. Honoring Jean
Patton, Orphan Voyage Founder and Executive
Director. This is the story of how Jean Patton
started the adoption reform movement in America
many years ago.
- If you are just beginning your adoption search and need guidance, you may be able to find the answer to your question in our FAQ (frequently asked questions) area. We provide contact information for adoption agencies, hospitals, doctors, attorneys, social workers, etc. in Washington state. We also have lists of registries and support groups (online and offline).
