The uniform adoption act of 1994 was drafted by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws (NCCUSL).

Stricter regulation of what information is needed to complete and adoption and what is done with that information is needed for the best interests of both parties involved.Adoption is governed individually by each state, Kansas and Alaska allow adult adoptees full and unconditional access to original birth records....
