ATHENS, Greece & NEW YORK - OhioPen -- n a breaking development, the Greek Ministry of the Interior has issued a historic Ministerial Order addressing the long-overdue needs of Greek-born adoptees, marking a significant step toward justice, recognition, and belonging for thousands affected by international adoptions.
This milestone directly results from a powerful collaboration between the dedicated advocates at The Eftychia Project and the specialized legal team at Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, PLLC. Their deep expertise in Greek citizenship law and tireless advocacy created the momentum and credibility needed to engage directly with government officials. A pivotal meeting took place in Athens on October 24, 2024.
For years, The Eftychia Project has remained steadfast in its mission to support and advocate for Greek-born adoptees, particularly those adopted abroad, offering hope, identity, and reconnection with their roots. In partnership with the legal team at Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, they laid the foundation that ultimately led to this transformative governmental action.

"Our firm has developed and implemented a proven legal pathway for Greek-born adoptees to reclaim their Greek citizenship and secure rightful registration in the Greek Civil Registry," said Rallou Kyriakopoulou, Director of Greek Matters at Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, PLLC. "This Order validates a legal process we've successfully applied for years. Many believed it was impossible, but we always believed that hard work and our dedication to developing the legal framework would accomplish the goal, and this Order is the proof"
This effort once believed impossible, has now become a reality thanks to the firm's expertise in Greek Citizenship Law and years of determined, strategic legal advocacy. Their framework was acknowledged by the Greek Government, the Ministry of the Interior, and especially Minister Theodoros Livanios, who issued the landmark Ministerial Order. The Order establishes a definitive legal precedent and a clear path forward for Greek-born adoptees seeking the restoration of their citizenship. It formalizes and expands access to Greek citizenship for those who were separated from their heritage through adoption, often during periods of profound social and political upheaval.

"This is truly a day for Greek-born adoptees everywhere to celebrate something that none of us were certain we'd ever see in our lifetime." said Eftychia Trotter Forest, founder of The Eftychia Project. Four years ago, The Eftychia Project launched its adoptee-led initiative for citizenship. Today, with the continuous effort of its board of directors and its legal team of Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, in close cooperation with Ministry of the Interior, what was once a dream has come to fruition with this ground-breaking Ministerial Order. We are ecstatic!"
This achievement is a testament to the power of collaborative advocacy and expert legal leadership. Both The Eftychia Project and Tsoromokos & Papadopoulos, PLLC, remain deeply committed to guiding Greek-born adoptees on their journey to reclaiming their identity, heritage, and rightful citizenship.
