Overview of Colorado Adoption Information

Under Colorado law identifying information may be exchanged when the adult adoptee (age 18) and the birth parents have each filed consents. Relatives of deceased birth parents and relatives of deceased adoptees may also register. Information will only be released if both birth parents register UNLESS (1) only one birth parent is listed on the original birth certificate, (2) only one birth parent is still living, or (2) the non-consenting birth parent is unable to be located after a diligent search.
