The Egg Donation and Surrogacy Professional Association Meets with Assisted Reproduction Experts
The EDSPA Board of Directors was invited to present its current status and long term plan to a group of ART professionals.

ORLANDO, FL, June 02, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Recently, in response to the negative press generated by the Octomom and Surrogenesis debacles, the Egg Donation and Surrogacy Professional Association members ("EDSPA") presented the organization's current status and future plans to a multi-disciplined group of internationally recognized assisted reproduction professionals. Among its many offerings, this non-profit organization provides safe practices guidelines to third party reproduction professionals.

The meeting attendees included representatives from the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, RESOLVE, the American Fertility Association, the American Bar Association, Egg Donor Agency owners, Surrogacy Agency owners in addition to attorneys who practices are limited to reproductive law.

The meeting also provided an opportunity for EDSPA to introduce its dispute resolution program for the infertile clients of third party reproduction professionals. This program, believed to be the only one of its kind in the infertility industry, will permit aggrieved clients to resolve disputes with their service providers in a non-litigious environment.

One of the meeting attendees, Maureen McBrien, a notable Boston family law attorney who authored Assisted Reproductive Technology: A Lawyer's Guide to Emerging Law and Science stated that "Right now, there is no regulation ... in general." Attorney McBrien offered her opinion that the best response might be for the industry to police itself. EDSPA could potentially act as a filter for agencies and be a place where intended parents, surrogates and egg donors could find security, she said.
