Heather joined NWSC in June 2016 after six years working with people experiencing homelessness. She graduated from Southern Oregon University with a degree in International Studies, with a focus on Women’s Studies and Spanish. After graduation, she served two years as an AmeriCorps VISTA member, during which she developed a passion for doing work that impacts people’s lives in meaningful and lasting ways. After her cousin became a surrogate, Heather witnessed the amazing way surrogates help to create loving families and she is so excited to be able to work with other women who want to be a part of that experience.
In her time away from the office, Heather enjoys hiking and backpacking through Oregon’s beautiful wilderness. She’s also happy staying in with a cup of tea and a good book. She loves old sci-fi movies-the cheesier the better!
What Heather will do for you:Heather provides information and support to surrogates from the first time they contact us until they are matched with a family. She assists them through their screening and prepares them to be matched.
NWSC is committed to helping families achieve their dream of parenthood through surrogacy while also prioritizing everyone’s health and safety. We understand families and surrogates may have waited years to start this process, and we are ready to help you with your journey.
Are NWSC offices open?
Yes, most NWSC employees are working remotely, and all meetings are being held over Zoom. We continue to be available during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, 8 AM – 5 PM PST.
Can I still start my surrogacy journey as an intended family?
Yes, potential surrogates can complete the screening process virtually and are available to match with families. If you are interested in finding out more, the first step is to schedule a free, initial consultation over Zoom here. When you are ready to get started, the NWSC fee agreement can be emailed and signed electronically.
Can I become a surrogate during COVID-19?
Yes, we are excited that so many wonderful women are contacting us to start their surrogacy journey and help a deserving intended family have a baby. We are completing the screening process over email, phone, and Zoom. If you are ready to find out more, please complete our online intake form.
Can I be matched?
Yes, we have many loving families and generous surrogates ready to be matched. Surrogates are able to undergo all the screening steps virtually, and we are matching them as soon as they complete that process. Match meetings are held over Zoom, and surrogates and families are also working on their legal contracts as they normally would after a successful match meeting.
Are clinics open?
Yes,the process looks a little different than before COVID-19, but medical screenings and embryo transfers are taking place.
