Family Equality

Family Building · Virginia · Free

Advances equality for LGBTQ+ families through advocacy, support, and legal protections. Relevant for couples needing second-parent adoption to protect both parents' rights regardless of biology. Fertility preservation (egg/sperm banking) is best done before hormone therapy; insurance increasingly covers this. Pre-birth orders in surrogacy let both intended parents go on the birth certificate without post-birth adoption in supportive states. Free, confidential, and open to anyone in the LGBTQ+ community.
