?

Donor Conceived Community (DCC) is a 501(c)3 dedicated to making a better world for donor-conceived people (DCP). We promote the well-being of DCP by providing support, education, and resources for DCP, parents, donors, and the professionals who work with them.

We host peer support groups by and for people navigating donor conception.

*Donor conceived refers to a person conceived with the use of donor sperm, egg, or embryo. In biology, donor refers to the person providing tissue, organs, or gametes, not a free donation or charitable contribution. Most gamete donors in the U.S. are paid or financially compensated.
