Your RESOLVE Summer Reading List

The July issue of Resolve's monthly eUpdates, from my email inbox last week:

A monthly reminder that RESOLVE is working to improve the lives of people diagnosed with infertility.

Summer is a great time to catch up on your reading, and RESOLVE has many suggestions. From new articles featured in our newsletter to blog posts nominated for a Hope Award to the content posted daily on our Facebook page, RESOLVE offers you reliable information, important updates, and great advice from the infertility community. It’s not exactly beach reading, but these recommendations will certainly help you along your journey through infertility – no matter what the season! Help Us Better Serve the Infertility Community We value your opinion. Each year we survey the RESOLVE community so we can continue to improve the work we do at RESOLVE. Please take 10 minutes to tell us more about your infertility experience and your interactions with RESOLVE today! This survey is confidential and your name/email will not be attached to your answers. Take the survey here. Make Your Plans for the Night of Hope The 16th Annual Night of Hope will take place Wednesday, November 6 at the Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers in New York, NY. Join us for an evening celebrating the efforts of those who improve the lives of people living with infertility. Tickets are now available. Vote for the Hope Award for Best BlogBe a part of the Night of Hope! Your vote will help determine this year’s Hope Award for Best Blog. The Best Blog award is given to a blog written by someone who is living with infertility and whose blog posts raise awareness about what life is like when you are faced with infertility. Spend some time reading the nominees’ blog posts, and then vote for your favorite. The winner will be invited to accept his/her award November 6th at the Night of Hope.

Use RESOLVE’s online Action Alert system to send your letter immediately. Please remember to personalize each letter so that your legislators know why the bill is important to you and the people from your state. Members of Congress will support legislation that matters to their constituents in their district or state. Make your voice heard! The Family Act, S 881/HR 1851, will create a tax credit for the out-of-pocket costs associated with IVF and fertility preservation. Women Veterans and Other Health Care Improvements Act of 2013, S 131/HR 958, would improve the reproductive assistance provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs to severely wounded or injured veterans and their spouses. Adoption Tax Credit Refundability Act of 2013, S 1056/HR 2144, would make the tax credit refundable, thereby helping more middle and lower income families take advantage of the Adoption Tax Credit.
