The Idaho Voluntary Adoption Registry 6/2010

The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare’s Bureau of Health Policy and Vital Statistics manages the Idaho Voluntary Adoption Registry.

Adoption records in Idaho are confidential; however, the Idaho Legislature authorized the Voluntary Adoption Registry to bring people together, if there is mutual interest in such contact (Section 39-259A of the Idaho Code). The Idaho Voluntary Adoption Registry is a confidential cross-reference file of people who are or were the principal parties in an adoption. All people who have filed with the Registry have indicated their wish to make their identities known to other parties involved in the adoption.

For more information about the Idaho Voluntary Adoption Registry, call the Idaho Bureau of Health Policy and Vital Statistics by dialing 1-208-334-5990.
