Adoption facilitators.

Bill Subjects

Adoption Facilitators

Abstract

Existing law generally sets forth the procedures and requirements for an adoption and authorizes an adoption facilitator to provide specific adoption services, including advertising for the purpose of soliciting parties to an adoption or locating children for an adoption or acting as an intermediary between the parties to an adoption, and charging a fee or other valuable consideration for services rendered. This bill would repeal the provisions relating to adoption facilitators and would expressly prohibit a person or organization from engaging in specified activities relating to adoption, unless the person or organization is either licensed as an adoption agency by the State Department of Social Services or an attorney licensed to practice law in California. The bill would make various conforming changes.
