The Secret Society - Free Screening
Feb

The Secret Society - Free Screening

The Secret Society shines light on the complex world of assisted reproduction in Canada: the couples desperately searching for human eggs to fertilize with sperm, the women willing to donate their eggs, and professionals who support both. Complicating the already  stressful and stigmatized world of infertility,  Canadian law criminalizes payment for donated eggs. These laws perpetuate the secrecy surrounding egg donation and create a bizarrely complex world of assisted reproduction.

This community screening and panel discussion will create an opportunity to speak about the legal, ethical, and personal aspects of assisted reproduction, with insights from Rachel West, Calgary fertility lawyer.

Jan

FRANK - Launch Party

What is Frank all about? Consider Frank as your online resource to support you from pregnant to postpartum, from the comfort of your own home. The platform is filled with short educational videos, and workouts appropriate for any stage.

Why Frank? We know that physical activity is a key component to physical and mental wellbeing during pregnancy. Unfortunately, too many of us don't know where to start, what's important, why it's important and what we should be looking out for as we explore movement with an ever growing (or recovering) body. Frank is here to address just that.

Who is Frank? Frank was created by Maud's very own pelvic floor physio, Rachelle Bonneville. She has a background in strength training and a heck of a lot of experience helping pregnant and postpartum people feel better throughout this huge transition.
