Adoption Search
The NC General Assembly passed legislation regarding the Release of Identifying information effective January 1, 2008. As a licensed adoption agency, Catholic Social Services may act as a Confidential Intermediary for a biological parent, an adult adoptee (age 21 or older), or an adult descendant of a deceased adoptee to obtain and share non-identifying information. If both parties mutually consent, CSS may share identifying information. For further details, please contact Jeannie Beall at 704-370-3222.
