COLAGE

Family Building · Connecticut · Free

Network of people with one or more LGBTQ+ parents — supporting children of LGBTQ+ families. Useful for trans people preserving fertility before hormone therapy or surgery. Foster training is free in every state and takes about 30 hours plus home study (~2–4 months total). Reciprocal IVF (one partner provides eggs, another carries) is increasingly available and many states now require coverage. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
