Feel free to bring your printed materials, brochures, flyers, books you've authored or have found to be helpful, etc.

This is a day of support and education, all ideas and topics will be considered and anyone thinking, trying or parenting through Third Party Reproduction is welcome. Blended families are welcome, as are LGBT families, Choice Moms and Dads, Co-parenting families, etc.
