Queer Birth Project www.queerbirthproject.org The Queer Birth Project is a collection of LGBTQ-identified birth and postpartum professionals who work together to support LGBTQ families during family building and early parenting.

Trans Fertility Co transfertility.co Trans Fertility Co. was created by trans community members to make the world of fertility easier for us to understand and navigate. "You’ll find articles on academic research, videos on many aspects of trans fertility, and opportunities for fertility and family-building practitioners to deepen their commitment to the trans community. Trans Fertility Co. is fiercely intersectional and will work to center the voices of transgender community members who are people of color, people with disabilities, people living in poverty, and others who live at the intersections of resilience and marginalization.Trans Fertility Co. is 100% shame-free. We will gladly consider guest articles provided that those articles are in alignment with the values listed above AND don’t contain a whiff of judgment about birthing decisions, feeding choices, medicalized/non-medicalized approaches, etc. We believe that every trans person is uniquely sacred and powerful, and that their individual journeys should be honored. We welcome both evidence- and community-based information, provided that it is offered without judgment towards other paths to family-building."

​Maia Midwifery & Fertility maiamidwifery.com "Maia Midwifery & Fertility is a whole health practice serving families worldwide. We welcome people of all orientations while actively centering LGBTQ+, solo by choice, and BIPOC communities. Telehealth and virtual programs assist families from conception through pregnancy and into early parenthood. Maia provides insemination services for the Seattle area.
