The SurroStudy Story

SurroStudy was founded to fill a critical need: objective, independent surrogacy home evaluations that are useful to clinics, attorneys, agencies, and intended parents for decision-making and are defensible in multi-jurisdictional contexts. We recognized that when the same organization conducts placement, intake, and evaluation there is a real risk of perceived or actual conflicts of interest.

To solve this problem, SurroStudy brought together licensed social work professionals, clinical advisors, and legal counsel to build a trusted, surrogate-specific evaluation model.

We continue to evolve our model through partner feedback, regulatory changes, and peer review so that SurroStudy remains a trusted, independent resource in surrogacy care.

Need to Conduct a Surrogacy Home Evaluation?

We have a team of LSWs that have completed our SurroStudy Certification process and ready to be scheduled to help.
