California Open announces registration is now open to attend the State Wide Planning Meeting 2005:

The Starting Gate for 2008!
Tsakopoulos Library Galleria
August 26 – 28th
Sacramento, California

California adoptee rights supporters are assembling under the banner of California Open. This early task force is formalizing to bring a 2008 ballot initiative that will restore adult adoptees’ access to their own original birth certificate. Step up to the Starting Gate! We’re calling on all who have been impacted by the 1935 sealing of birth certificate records to join the Cal Open statewide movement. This is the rallying point to organize, involve, and reform a flawed and antiquated law that threatens best adoption practice for thousands of families and endangers California’s privacy and equal rights protections. Everyone’s voice matters to assure our efforts succeed.

Cal Open is pleased to present the California Film Premiere of:

Measurable Rights: the fight for open records in Oregon
Appearing in person:
Paul Fournier, filmmaker
Helen Hill, Chief Petitioner of Measure 58
