Adoption Tax Credit

This is very near and dear to my heart, especially with the arrival of Miles in our family! Miles didn't come to us through LDS Family Services whose fees are much less than the agency that we got him through. So, any help families like us can get to help afford adoption is definitely a good cause! There are great couples out there who would love to adopt, but just cannot afford to do so and many children out there who need good homes. If you live in Utah and feel it is important for the State Legislature to enact a tax credit for adoption expenses, read below and follow the instructions!

From the Provo FSA website:

As you might have heard, the Provo Families Supporting Adoption chapter is actively working to petition the Utah State Legislature to enact a tax credit for adoption expenses. Please join us in helping support this petition by visiting http://www.adoptiontaxlaw.org/

On the site you can view the petition, the proposed bill, press releases and other information related to this effort. You can show your support of this petition by completing the form and also by writing to your legislator. If you are not sure how to write your Legislator, the "Write your Legislators" link on the website will walk you through the process.

Your support will go a long way in helping to make sure this bill becomes law.
