Other Facebook Groups
Don't forget we have our very own Facebook group for the DCR members. It is a secret group, so you won't be able to find it by looking for it on Facebook. The only way to see it to be invited, and for that to happen you will need to get in touch with us.
Donor Conceived Offspring, Donors, Parents
This group is for all people who were conceived via anonymous donor, people who used anonymous donors to conceive their children, and anyone who donated sperm or eggs or is considering donor conception.
DNA for the Donor Conceived
A subgroup of DNA Detectives, this Facebook group was created especially to help donor conceived individuals and donors search for family members using DNA test results.

We Are Donor Conceived
