Creating a Family: Choices for Prospective LGBT Parents

Saturday, March 27th, 9:30-3:00

Our most amazing workshop ever!

Join the MEGA Family Project in a spectacular day of learning about the options and issues facing prospective LGBT parents. Learn about the different options available to you so you can make an informed decision about your journey to parenthood. Find out what issues prospective parents are facing. Learn about the social and legal considerations involved with parenting in Georgia.

This is truly one of our most amazing workshops as you will hear from both parents and professionals for a comprehensive day of learning about becoming a parent in Georgia. Topics covered: open adoption, donor insemination, the current state of international adoptions, foster parenting, adopting from the foster care system, and surrogacy.

You will hear from parents telling their personal journeys through the different methods available, and from a panel of professionals who will talk about the different options available to you from a professional stand point. You will hear about the very important legal issues you need to consider in deciding to become a parent, and get your questions answered by a fantastic adoption attorney.

Cost: $40 per person, and $25 per person for current MEGA Family Champion members. Snacks, lunch, and drinks will be served during the workshop. If you have special dietary concerns, please e-mail Kathy@megafamilyproject.org to discuss menu choices. If the cost is keeping you from attending, please e-mail Kathy@megafamilyproject.org to discuss our scholarship option.

This is the best investment of time and money you will make! Don't miss this great opportunity.

This is the most comprehensive workshop available that covers all the options available to both men and women in the LGBT community who want to become parents. Many of the options available will require some long-term planning, so please attend our signature workshop even if you plan on waiting a few years before beginning your journey.

Our goal: to make sure you are armed with all the facts before embarking on your journey to parenthood. All of our past workshop participants will tell you this is a Saturday well spent as you will leave with a lot of new information to think about as they pertain to your family. This is a workshop that will exceed your expectations!
