The Center for Infertility Justice

What is The Center for Infertility Justice?
The Center is where RESOLVE brings together its advocates, supporters, partners, and like-minded organizations to effectively study, defend, and promote infertility. The goals of the Center are to promote access to care for all who need it, fight any attempts to restrict or eliminate that care, and provide research and data to support positive public policy for the infertility community. RESOLVE, the only patient advocacy group in the U.S. that fights for the rights of women and men who are infertile has seen an increasing need to bring together the community to ensure that our voices are heard.

State Legislation

RESOLVE works with advocacy volunteers to ensure equal access to all family building options for men and women experiencing infertility or other reproductive disorders. In 2013, RESOLVE anticipates that there will be legislation introduced in every state that could negatively impact access to family building options. Find out what happened in your state in 2012.
