Eligibility Criteria
Foundation helps couples or individuals who meet the following criteria:
- Resident of CT, NJ, or NY
- One parent must be Jewish (applies to same-sex couples, heterosexual couples, and singles). Judaism must also be the sole religion practiced in the home and the only religion your child will be raised with
- Proof of infertility from medical doctor (unless medical history or physical findings dictate earlier evaluation and treatment)
- Have the means for child support and adequate living arrangements, along with basic health insurance for mother and baby.
Medical Criteria
- Applicants MUST meet the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) definition of Infertility (i.e. blocked tubes, unexplained infertility, endometriosis, PCOS, male factor, female factor, etc.) OR have other appropriate situation that requires use of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (e.g. LGBTQIA+, cancer treatment, genetic carriers, etc.). A reproductive endocrinologist must certify that treatment is necessary (i.e. not just preferable) and the applicant is an appropriate candidate.
- Stardust utilizes a healthcare review committee that considers if candidates have a reasonable likelihood of success. Additionally, full Jewish genetic screening is required. They do not want someone to undergo treatment only to find out another factor is a barrier. Tests of ovarian reserve and applicant’s overall mental and physical health will also be considered.
