"We truly believe Love is Family, and are dedicated to providing the best reproductive care possible to the growing number of MHB members and future gay parents."
Ron Poole-Dayan, MHB's Executive Director and founder, says, "MHB has built a vibrant and growing community organization for current and future gay parents. Our mission is to broaden access to affordable and ethical parenting options for gay men, and support the needs of the families we helped create. Funds from our Impact Partners such as Pinnacle Fertility allow us to scale the impact our programming has on our community in numerous ways, including growing the scope of our financial assistance program; increasing our advocacy efforts for safe and ethical surrogacy and for the removal of discriminatory financial barriers (with the recent addition of a dedicated advocacy team member); and expansion of our educational and support programs beyond our existing conferences to also include families and professionals."
Pinnacle Fertility and California Fertility Partners are proud to support the upcoming MHB Conferences in Chicago on October 14-15 and in New York on November 11-13.
