Arkansas > Chandler v. Barker Foster Parenting and Adoption Litigated against anti-gay adoption and foster parenting bans and decisions Jennifer Owens and Sheila Cole - plaintiffs in our challenge to the Arkansas adoption ban - with Sheila's granddaughter, who they hope to adopt. Arkansas: Filed challenge to law enacted by the voters in November 2008 that bans unmarried couples from serving as adoptive or foster parents Florida: Won trial court ruling overturning Florida’s ban on adoption by gay people; successfully used this fifth AC LU challenge to the ban to get out our twin messages that (1) the evidence shows that children raised by gay people do just as well as those raised by heterosexuals, and (2) this ban is harmful to at-risk kids Georgia: Successfully represented lesbian mother against criminal contempt charges filed against her by judge who had denied her petition to adopt a close friend’s daughter Michigan: Represented co-parent of three Illinois-adopted daughters in custody case; family court ruled that neither parent could enforce her rights as parent in Michigan because that would violate the Michigan Constitution’s amendment that recognizes only unions between a man and a woman; on appeal Texas: Lesbian couple who were foster parents seeking to adopt five siblings, some with developmental disorders, were before a judge who ruled that the siblings should be “re-broadcasted” as adoptable children for other potential families; we helped transfer case to new judge in another county who approved the adoption Fought against discriminatory parenting measures in state legislatures and elections The Kelley-Estes family, who are plaintiffs challenging Act 1, the newly passed Arkansas adoption ban.
