Open adoption is becoming a common element of preparation for and ongoing services in infant and special-needs adoptions. This article discusses the results of a recent survey of 1,268 adoptive parents (1,396 adoptions) in California, in which questions were asked concerning openness and ongoing contact with biological parents. Postplacement contact with biological parents was common in this sample, and adoptive parents seemed cautiously comfortable with contact, with some exceptions.
