Adoption Search - Disclosure | Health and Human Services North Dakota Adoption Search - Disclosure North Dakota Century Code 14-15-16 provides that an adopted individual, a birth parent, or a birth sibling of an adopted individual may initiate a search for the adoptee/ birth parent. As of August 1, 2003, an adult child of a deceased adopted individual may also initiate a search.
Searches may be made for either non-identifying information or for identifying information. When completing an identified search, a request for updated medical information may be made. An adopted individual may request a search when they reach age 18.
A birth parent or birth sibling may request a search when the adopted individual being sought reaches age 21. The law requires individuals involved in the search process to consent to the release of identifying information about themselves. The search agency must make personal and confidential contact with the person being sought to request their consent.
The licensed child placing agency that facilitated the adoption, or (if a facilitating agency cannot be identified) a licensed child placement agency of the searcher's choice completes the search. Search agencies may charge a fee for the search.
Types of Information Made Available Non-identifying information about the adopted adult and the adopted adult's birth relatives may include: Date and place of the adopted adult's birth Age of the birth parents and a description of their general physical appearances Race, ethnicity, religion, and medical history of the birth parents Type of termination of parental rights Facts and circumstances relating to the adoptive placement Age and sex of children of the birth parents at the time of adoption Educational levels of the birth parents and their occupations, interests, or skills Any supplemental information about the medical or social conditions of members of the birth family provided since the adoption was complete.
Medical history is rarely updated by parties to the adoption, making the information as old as the adopted adult. Past records may contain sparse information collected at the time of the adoption either because a birth mother was hesitant to disclose information or because adoption agencies, private facilitators, and lawyers did not place importance on this information at the time.
Additionally, knowledge regarding the genetic factors related to health has increased over the years, so that information requested at the time of adoption may not be as complete as would now be requested. State laws now require collection of more information at the time of the adoption for full disclosure of heath and background information to the adoptive parents.
More recent medical information may be obtained by requesting the agency search for the birth family and ask them to provide updated medical information. Identifying information may lead to the positive identification of an adopted adult, birth mother, or birth father.
Names, addresses, and dates contained in court records or submitted to the state Department of Health, Division of Vital Records, are usually considered identifying information. Starting an Adoption Search Contact the Department of Human Services for the forms to begin the adoption search, or access through the State's Electronic Forms Web site.
The form numbers required are: SFN 940 , Search/ Disclosure Request and SFN 1992 , Release of Information - Search/ Disclosure. When you have completed the forms, you may forward to the licensed child placing agency that facilitated the adoption (see Licensed Adoption Agencies in ND ).
If you do not know which agency was involved in the adoption, you may forward to the Department's Adoption Service Unit , Children and Family Services Division. If you know the agency that will conduct the search, you should enclose the fee payment, made payable to the agency. The Department does not conduct the search, so no fee payment should be made to the Department.
If you have questions about the fee payment, please phone 701-328-2316. Contact the child-placing agency that was involved with the adoption, if known. A child-placing agency will conduct the search process.
Should you request identifying information or non-identifying information not on file, please keep in mind that North Dakota law provides that a child-placing agency has a period of three months to make reasonable effort to notify the adopted adult/ genetic parents/siblings of your request.
Obtaining an Original Birth Certificate An adoptee must petition a court to order the North Dakota Department of Health's Division of Vital Records to release the original birth certificate (see NDCC 23-02. 1-18 ). For further information, individuals may contact the Division of Vital Records at (701) 328-2360.
State Statute allows the licensed child-placing agency to charge a fee for services. Each agency has established a fee for services for both identifying and non-identifying information. Currently established fees are: Catholic Charities North Dakota (also holding records from LSS and the Village Family Service Center for adoption search purposes) Identifying Information - $500.
00 Non-identifying Information - $100. 00 Christian Adoption Services Identifying Information - $105 (3 hrs.) + $35/hr.
per additional hr. Non-identifying Information - $35/hr. No information can be provided until the appropriate fee is paid.
Please make your check out to the appropriate agency if you are forwarding forms to the Department.

The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking launched its AI Gigafactories call on 30 July 2026 as a joint procurement, not a conventional research grant, and that distinction shapes who should respond. It seeks consortia or Special Purpose Vehicles bringing together companies, public entities, investors and other partners to establish up to seven AI Gigafactories across Europe - facilities that combine massive computing power and state-of-the-art AI processors with the software and cloud technology stacks, high-bandwidth connectivity and energy-efficient data centres needed to deliver frontier AI training, fine-tuning and inference at scale. This is the tier above the 19 AI Factories and 13 AI Factory Antennas EuroHPC already oversees, which serve SMEs and startups with free customised support; the Gigafactories are aimed at frontier-scale sovereign capacity. The financing model is blended: EuroHPC expects total private investment of more than EUR 20,000,000,000 across the EU, with successful projects receiving varying levels of EU and national co-funding calibrated to the size and range of sovereign services offered. Per-facility EU contributions have deliberately not been published, so applicants must build their own capital stack and negotiate co-funding rather than apply against a fixed grant envelope. Facilities may be established in a single Member State or span several, and cross-border developments are explicitly welcomed. The reference is EUROHPC-2026-CEI-AIGF-01 and the deadline is 12 November 2026 at 16:00 CET. Realistically this is a call for infrastructure-grade consortia with credible access to billions in capital, energy siting and hyperscale operations experience - not for individual research groups or early-stage startups, who should instead route through the existing AI Factories network.
HMGCC Co-Creation and Dstl are seeking an edge device that processes video and audio from off-the-shelf smart glasses and stitches frames into high-fidelity 3D maps for reconnaissance. The minimum deliverable is a TRL 4 proof of concept. AI, computer vision and machine learning are listed technology themes, for example algorithms that compensate for head movement while stitching frames. Essential requirements are a report on where smart-glasses data flows and who can access it, good daytime urban imagery, and a camera-based 3D map. Desirable features include low-light imaging, audio fusion, testing across several manufacturers and a three-year manufacturer roadmap, and the stretch goal is fusing audio and visual data to handle reflections and solid walls. Redesigning or physically modifying the glasses is out of scope, and data handling must comply with GDPR and manufacturer terms. The total budget is up to £60,000, about US$80,000, excluding VAT, with on average two providers funded for a 12-week project. Questions are due 29 October, pitch day is 25 November, and kick-off is targeted for January 2027. Applications close on 12 November 2026 at 17:00 UK time.
HMGCC Co-Creation and Dstl are seeking proof-of-concept small robots that can move through confined built environments across at least two of water, land and air, at TRL 4 or above.
