In a significant step toward ensuring equal rights for all families, Massachusetts recently enacted the Massachusetts Parentage Act. Signed into law, this groundbreaking legislation modernizes the state's parentage laws to reflect the diverse ways that families are formed today. The new law is particularly important for #LGBTQ+ families, unmarried parents, and those using assisted reproductive technologies (ART) to build their families. Here is what you need to know about the new Parentage Act in Massachusetts and how it impacts families: https://lnkd.in/eDrpXYHr #infertility #fertility #ivf #surrogacy #lgbtq

Partner, White Collar Defense & Internal Investigations, Ballard Spahr LLP | Former Federal Prosecutor
Happy Pride!! This year, my family is celebrating by welcoming our brand new daughter, a Pride baby, born on June 11! Until last decade, my family was not possible. I am married to my husband, because gay marriage is protected under the Constitution. Our daughter was conceived using an egg donor and IVF, because the law protects that miracle of science that helps so many families, straight and gay alike. A wonderful and giving surrogate carried our daughter and gave birth to her, because the law protects surrogacy. And as a result, we are now life-long friends with the two moms who helped us become dads, when our surrogate and her wife selflessly decided to help another LGBTQ+ family have a child. We cannot take these hard-fought rights for granted. The law can be a force for justice and equality. But as we have seen, the law can be changed, and it can just as easily be used to suppress these virtues. There are many who are blinded to the joy and love that these legal protections bring to LGBTQ+ families, and they instead seek to dismantle them for their own narrow-minded aims. The preservation of these rights depends on vigilance and visibility. The battle to defend them is not an abstract, academic debate. These laws have real consequences for real families, including our own. And, the LGBTQ+ community depends on its allies to stand strong with them to defend these protections. So, this year, I wanted to share our story and a photo of our new family! Ten years from now, I want to make sure a family like ours is still possible, so that other LGBTQ+ families get to experience this same happiness. #pride #gayrights #lgbtrights #gaypride

What issues still persist for LGBTQ+ in Family Law? 1️⃣ Marriage Equality: Equal access to marriage is a milestone achieved in many places, but some jurisdictions still deny same-sex couples this fundamental right. We must continue advocating for marriage equality worldwide, ensuring that love knows no boundaries. #MarriageEquality #LoveIsLove 2️⃣ Parental Rights & Adoption: LGBTQ+ individuals and couples encounter barriers when seeking to establish legal parental rights or adopt children. Let's fight for equal access to adoption, foster care, and parental recognition, ensuring that every child finds a loving, supportive home. #EqualParentalRights #AdoptionEquality 3️⃣ Surrogacy & Assisted Reproduction: Inconsistent laws and discriminatory practices hinder LGBTQ+ individuals' access to surrogacy and assisted reproduction. Let's work towards fair and inclusive regulations that enable all individuals to fulfill their dreams of starting a family. #FamilyFormationEquality #InclusiveReproduction 4️⃣ Divorce & Dissolution: LGBTQ+ couples face unique challenges in divorce or dissolution proceedings. Let's strive for equitable treatment, ensuring fair property division, child custody arrangements, and spousal support for all couples, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. #EqualDivorceRights #FairLegalRemedies Together, we can shape a future where every LGBTQ+ individual and family is treated with dignity, equality, and respect. #LGBTQRights #InclusiveFamilyLaw #EqualityMatter

🌈 Why Pride Shouldn't End After Pride Week This Pride Week, we are honored to share the inspiring journey of our founder, Sophie van der Schaft, as she reflects on her recent experiences of becoming a mother as a transgender woman. Sophie faced many challenges on her path to motherhood, including navigating the complexities of international surrogacy. Her story is a powerful reminder of the strength in embracing your own journey. As she puts it, “Becoming a mother as a transgender woman is a journey full of obstacles, but it also highlights the beauty of finding your own path and embracing who you really are”. By sharing her story, Sophie aims to show that there are many ways to achieve fulfillment in life and that every journey is unique and valuable, no matter who you are or where you are coming from. For Sophie, Pride Week is about collectively celebrating the diversity of the individual and self-expression. Yet, she also emphasizes that; 💬 “It’s wonderful that we celebrate Pride once a year, but the effects should be visible in society every day.” In our industry we engage and interact with large audiences on a daily basis, mostly with younger generations who are in the midst of developing their own identity. Therefore we have the responsibility to actively contribute to an open and inclusive society and make a positive impact. Also internally we are committed to fostering an inclusive work culture where everyone can be themselves. At &MediaGroup we also encourage our clients to embrace and promote inclusivity and consult in any way possible. Let’s make this week a celebration of Pride, and commit to making Pride a daily reality for everyone. 💙💚💛🧡❤️💜 #PrideWeek2024 #LGBTIQA+ #TransRights #SelfAcceptance #Inclusivity #Diversity
