Texas SB500 amends the Family Code to enhance access to adoption-related information for prospective adoptive parents.

Texas SB500 modifies the Family Code to require the Department of Family and Protective Services, licensed child-placing agencies, or the child's parent or guardian to compile a comprehensive report on the child's health, social, educational, and genetic history before placing the child for adoption. This report must include details about the biological parents, any biological siblings adopted by a different family, and individuals who reported abuse or neglect.
