California is one of the most surrogacy-friendly states in the nation, offering clear legal protections and top-notch medical facilities. Surrogacy provides a path to parenthood for those facing infertility, medical conditions, or same-sex couples. For surrogates, it’s a rewarding way to help others while receiving generous compensation and support.

Understanding the Process

What is Surrogacy?

Surrogacy is a process where a woman (the surrogate) carries and delivers a child for intended parents. Gestational surrogacy, the most common form, ensures the surrogate has no genetic connection to the baby. This process allows families to grow through assisted reproduction with medical and legal guidance.
