For intended parents
If you live in Indiana, you can still build your family through surrogacy. Parents here usually work with a surrogate who lives, and delivers, in a supportive state, with the agreement governed by that state's law.
For surrogates
If you live in Indiana, please still apply. Because the law here is less settled, we review each application individually with an attorney before matching.
