Our unwavering commitment to our LGBTQ+ gestational carriers intends to set the industry standard by removing barriers to ensure LGBTQ+ identities are welcome and celebrated in all surrogacy spaces, guided by a skilled LGBTQ+ Team.
We are Queer Surrogacy!
Advocacy Focused Family Planning
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ+) individuals often face discrimination and mistreatment in medical spaces. This can take many forms, including a lack of cultural competency, bias and discrimination, and overall inadequate care.
How can Queer Surrogacy help?
​
Queer Surrogacy uses an advocacy-first approach with our coordination of services. Whether medical providers or legal counsel, we vet these providers ahead of time to ensure they have experience working with the LGBTQ+ community or identify as LGBTQ+ themselves. Our job is to create safe spaces for you and your Gestational Carrier.
We are here to help you begin your journey.
​​​You deserve to experience healthcare providers that are culturally competent and can provide care that is inclusive and respectful to you and your family, regardless of you sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other aspect of your identity.We understand that this isn't always the case. We want to remove those barriers and create a path to parenthood full of love and compassion.
Queer Surrogacy assists Intended Parent(s) in the process of Surrogacy by helping them find the best surrogate, coordinating and vetting all medical and legal professionals, managing all steps and procedures of your journey, and providing emotional support throughout the process.

Contracts & Escrow
The legal document that outlines the rights and responsibilities of all parties involved is known as a Surrogacy Agreement. This contract is typically drawn up between the Intended Parent(s) and the Gestational Carrier and will be executed with the the help of legal counsel. Surrogacy agreements can be upwards of 50 pages and cover numerous items, including financial compensation, medical procedures, parental rights, confidentiality, and much more.
A third-party escrow account will be used to hold the financial compensation and expenses for the gestational carrier and to disburse funds as specified in the surrogacy agreement. An escrow account will assist in the financial process's security, transparency, privacy, protection, and overall peace of mind.
