This is a surprisingly complex area, however, the point of contact for assistance on this matter is the U.S. State Department at 1-202-647-6575.

Submit this form with the fee to your local USCIS office. It may take up to one year for you to receive a new certificate. If you have one, you may use your passport as evidence of citizenship while you wait for a replacement certificate. If you don't already have a passport, it may be good to get one as another means of easily documenting your citizenship. It also appears that you should be able to obtain a U.S. passport with an original copy of your birth certificate is you have one: for more information on passports, visit the U.S. Department of State's website, http://travel.state.gov/passport.
