Adoption Amendments

Summary

The bill revises Utah’s adoption statutes, changing how agencies are licensed, what they can charge, and what information they must share with birth and adoptive parents. It also limits private for‑profit agencies from offering adoption services after 2027, requiring them to be nonprofit, and clarifies birth‑parent consent and mental‑health support. These changes aim to increase oversight, protect families, and ensure transparency in the adoption process.
