Description

 Join us for a discussion on embryo adoption with Janet Rupnow, LPC, as well as a panel of 3 families that have experienced embryo adoption. The discussion will focus on preparing for third-party family building and comparing and contrasting it to traditional adoption.  As Jana's editor stated, “Adoption used to be surrounded in mystery and family secrets. Today's advances in donor conception now present new challenges about "whom to tell," "when to tell,” and "how to tell.
