We believe one of the most important things you can do to battle infertility is to become educated about it and to get the emotional support you might need. Every month, each of the AIA satellites hold educational and support meetings open to the general public. AIA educational meeting are designed to be useful to you wherever you are in your journey to become a parent--whether you are looking for information on the basic infertility work up, IVF, adoption or child free living. We can even help you cope with your family and friends. Please join us each month at any of our meeting sites - Manhattan , Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, Westchester, Rockland., and now Long Island and Bridgeport, CT.  Were ready with the information you need and the supportive community you deserve.
