SALLY WILDMAN, a member of the American Academy of Adoption Attorneys, has represented adopting parents since 1985. Ms. Wildman served as Chair of the American Bar Association Adoption Committee from August 1991 to August 1992. During that time she initiated a resolution for the bar association urging the U.S. Congress to create benefits for adoptive families. Several parts of that resolution, including a tax credit for adoption expenses, are now available to many families.
In March, 2001 and March 2002, Ms Wildman co-sponsored the first and second annual Chicago Adoption Dialogue Forum, an exchange by key faculty from Illinois universities and organization whose research on the impact of adoption policies and practices form recommendations for new directions in this field.
In
addition to representing adopting parents, Ms. Wildman currently represents
adult adoptees who search for their biological family.
With the Illinois Adoption Registry and Medical Information Exchange now
available, there is greater access to information.
