This comprehensive one-of-a-kind resource comes highly recommended for all donor-conceived people regardless of family type. Also check out other COLAGE resources.
  • Donor Conceived Community. A great support whether you’ve known for years or just found out you’re donor-conceived, DCC is a safe place to connect with people facing a similar journey. Peer support and resources including for people navigating DNA discoveries (aka ‘misattributed parentage’).
  • Donor Conception Network. Another great support for donor-conceived people and their parents. Based in the UK, but still very relevant. Meet others going through similar experiences, access online articles and a library, buy books, get newsletters, and advocacy. Sign up for resources and services specifically for your situation.
