InterNational Council on Infertility Information Dissemination

What InterNational Council on Infertility Information Dissemination does

INCIID (InterNational Council on Infertility Information Dissemination) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1995 and headquartered in Burke, Virginia, that operates a digital platform serving individuals and couples navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, adoption, LGBTQ+ family-building, and special-needs parenthood. The platform centers on the inciid.org website, the INCIID Insights newsletter (20,000+ subscribers), and a separate community forum (forum.inciid.org), supplemented by a searchable Professional Directory of reproductive specialists, the From INCIID the Heart IVF Scholarship Program, the National Fertility Legislation Tracker (launched May 2026), and the Employer Fertility Benefits Registry (relaunched May 2026 as a searchable database). Underlying technology is a content-management-based website with community-forum and directory modules rather than a proprietary AI or clinical platform, and no mobile apps or API integrations are disclosed.

The organization monetizes through three streams: tax-deductible donations from supporters, paid Professional Membership listings for healthcare providers seeking patient visibility, and merchandise sales through an online shop. GTM is community-led — content marketing, newsletters, webinars, and forum-based peer support drive engagement, with corporate sponsors supporting the newsletter via [email protected]. Customer segments are diversified across infertile individuals and couples (primary), prospective adoptive parents, LGBTQ+ patients, pregnancy-loss patients, special-needs parents, and reproductive-healthcare professionals (B2B directory). Distribution is exclusively digital and self-serve, with the Professional Directory functioning as the principal referral channel between patients and specialists.
