In honor of National Infertility Awareness Week Helpusadopt.org is making adoption education part of the infertility dialog
United States, 19th Mar 2025 —In honor of National Infertility Awareness Week (April 20-26, 2025), Helpusadpot.org, the nation's leader in the adoption grant space, is creating an educational bridge to incorporate a much-needed dialogue about adoption as an option for the all-too-common situation when IVF doesn't work. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an estimated 8.5 million women a year have infertility problems, which translates to 1 in 6 people who experience infertility. It is estimated that each year 2 million people leave the IVF world unsuccessful, like Becky Fawcett, mom by adoption and founder of Helpusadopt.org, a national adoption grant program that helps couples and individuals complete the costs of their adoptions by awarding grants up to $30,000.
"As a failed IVF patient and mom by adoption, I have worried for years that there is just not enough conversation and education surrounding adoption as an option in the world of infertility," States Fawcett. "With IVF success rates being what they are, I always think about how this community of millions will become parents because it is very clear that IVF doesn't work for most. These families leave one road for a possible other and have no guidance, no education on options, no map, no bridge to adoption----until now."
Fawcett Continues, "Who is helping these 2 million people a year? Who is looking out for them? Who is helping them to become parents another way if that is what they want? Not only can Helpusadopt.org provide a bridge to understanding adoption, we can provide adoption grants if they have run out of money, because IVF is expensive too. We see this exact situation with many of our grant applicants each year."
What Fawcett has learned over the years is that some infertility clinics and doctors do not want to speak with her because suggesting the option of adoption might cause their practices to suffer. She has been told that some doctors don't want to admit failure to point patients towards this option, so they won't do it. Fawcett is not convinced that either of the arguments are valid. "I always tell these professionals when I talk to them that I am not against IVF. I would be a hypocrite if I was. And no one could have talked me out of the 5 rounds of IVF I did years ago-- I would not have listened. But looking back on my life and now through the work I do at Helpusaodpt.org, I see the need for adoption education and awareness, and it's not something that infertility doctors can provide or know about, so why not build this bridge with us?"
