Founder of Creative Family Connections to Share Expertise on Budgeting for Surrogacy at Upcoming Men Having Babies Conference

Chevy Chase, MD, January 10, 2017 (Newswire.com) - ​Creative Family Connections, a full-service law firm and surrogacy agency, announced today that owner and founder Diane Hinson will participate as an expert panelist at the 4th Annual West Coast Men Having Babies Conference in San Francisco this weekend.

Hinson’s panel, “Budgeting: A Closer Look at Medical Insurance and Surrogate Compensation Packages,” will examine the costs associated with surrogacy as well as the evolving role of insurance coverage for gestational surrogates, intended parents and their babies.

"Creative Family Connections is more than just supportive of Men Having Babies and non-traditional families. CFC was founded on the principle that 'Everyone Can Build a Family.' It is one of our passions, and is a large part of our identity."

The discussion will also cover trends in agency policies related to surrogate compensation and other benefits included in the compensation package as well as ways agencies can guide intended parents regarding variable costs.

Creative Family Connections (CFC) is a proud partner with Men Having Babies (MHB) on its initiative, the Gay Parenting Assistance Program (GPAP). The first of its kind, GPAP provides eligible prospective gay parents with grants and access to discounts and free services through its select partnerships.

For Hinson, participating in the MHB conference aligns perfectly with CFC’s mission to create opportunities for parents of all types to build families. She said, “Creative Family Connections is more than just supportive of Men Having Babies and non-traditional families.  CFC was founded on the principle that ‘Everyone Can Build a Family.’ It is one of our passions, and is a large part of our identity.”

Representatives from CFC, with Hinson, will offer free consultations at the conference, where intended parents can learn more about the agency’s services. Attendees will also have the opportunity to meet a gestational carrier who is currently on her second journey with CFC, at a breakout session on Sunday.
