 Our Logo: The globe and compass points indicate our international service to the world-wide adoption community. The symbol in the center of this globe is the earliest known cipher indicating "child in a crib". This was donated by artist Kit Brown of Colorado.

 

    Newspaper & Magazine Articles

    ISRR has been written about hundreds of times in articles around the world since its humble beginnings in 1975. We have reproduced some of them here, especially the early ones highlighting the work of founder and Registrar, Emma May Vilardi, who passed away in 1990 and then her husband Anthony Vilardi, who carried on until he retired in 2001. There have been stretches where publicity nearly overwhelmed the volunteers and staff with thousands of requests and new registrations arriving each week. Because everyone was so dedicated, they would often worked into the night and weekends, until every registration was processed and every match call made.

    Dear Abby

    Columnist Abigail Van Buren referred her readers to ISRR many times since the early 1980's. In the three days following the publication of the first column, ISRR received more than 4,500 requests for registration forms. Each time, there would be a large increase in registrations and resulting matches.
