What is Overview of R.A. 9523 and Adoption Laws about?

R.A. 9523 shortened the adoption process for abandoned children by transferring the resolution of abandonment from DSWD to the courts. It also established a petition process for declaring abandonment that must be filed in court instead of DSWD issuing declarations of abandonment. Children who were previously institutionalized after being declared abandoned faced negative impacts like lower IQ and self-esteem. R.A. 9523 aims to address these issues by changing the process.
