Description: The Embryo Adoption Public Awareness Campaign was first funded by Congress in fiscal year 2002. The original purpose of the program was to increase public awareness of the existence of a large number of human embryos remaining after in vitro fertilization procedures, some of which might be available for adoption by infertile couples. In fiscal year 2008, Congress expanded the scope of the program to include interventions that provided &#8220;medical and administrative services&#8221; to individuals and couples in order to facilitate the adoption and donation of embryos for the purpose of family formation.
